Shrinkwrap Options

Hi everyone,
I wanted to better understand the difference between the options Create and exclude shrinkwrap and Exclude and create Shrinkwrap (I attach image 1)
It is indicated in the help but I did not understand it.

Thanks,
Matteo

@DaveMartin has a good explanation of the basics. Watch this video for a demonstration and explanation of how shrinkwrap can be used.

To Create a Shrinkwrap Feature (ptc.com)

 

Surface Copying Options
▪Shrinkwrap then exclude (default)—Analyze the entire assembly to identify external surfaces. Only surfaces that belong to the selected components are included in the resulting Shrinkwrap feature (used with subsets).
▪Exclude then Shrinkwrap—Base the Shrinkwrap only on the selected components (used with subsets).
