Load your own 3D model for the 3D search. To do this, drag and drop the desired part into the designated area or upload it using the file selection [File selection] button via Explorer.
Alternatively, a model opened in the 3D view can also be used for the geometric search. To do this, click on the button above the 3D view. (The settings dialog is opened with New search, the search is executed immediately with Add to search ).

In any case, the part is then opened in the settings dialog on the 3D search [3D Search] Tabbed page (see following figure). You can upload another part from the file system by clicking on .
You can perform a geometric search for a single part, a part of an assembly or a single feature:
