In Creo 11.0, the Project feature has been enhanced to support projecting multiple sketched points in a single operation. Previously, only one point could be projected at a time onto a geometric target.

With this update, when the Sketch option is selected, a new Project points checkbox becomes available. This option enables the projection of all points in a sketch onto a selected target, in addition to projecting sketched curves. Construction points, like construction curves, are ignored and not projected.

The resulting feature points can serve as location references for features such as spot-welds or point-based patterns, where the From Feature option can reference the Project feature containing the projected points.

In the sheet metal environment, the enhanced Follow surface option now applies to all projected sketch points.
