- Turn on the checkbox of the “Make Sketch Internal to Child Feature” as shown in the figure.
- Click the “Ok” button
- Restart NX.
To make created sketches invisible:
- Select the child feature of the sketch in the “Part Navigator” and click the right mouse button on it.
- Click on the “Make Sketch Internal” in the opening list.
- The sketch in the “Part Navigator” will disappear from the part navigator and the Sketch will be invisible in the graphics window.
Note: If “Make Sketch Internal” is not in the opening list, The sketch has relations with other features in the model.
