2. Draft
Draft tapers faces using a specified angle to selected faces in the model
You can specify the following types of draft:
Neutral plane
Parting line
Step draft

3. Draft : Neutral Plane a. None : Drafts only the selected faces
b. Along Tangent : Extends the draft to all faces that are tangent to the selected face

4. Draft : Neutral Plane
c. All Faces. Drafts all faces extruded from the neutral plane
d. Inner Faces. Drafts all inner faces extruded from the neutral plane

5. Draft : Neutral Plane
e. Outer Faces. Drafts all outer faces next to the neutral plane

6. Drafts : Parting Line 3D Parting line
The parting line option lets you draft surfaces around a parting line
3D Parting line

7. Allow Reduced Angle only with Parting Line
some portions of the drafted face may be smaller than the specified draft angle.

8. Draft : Parting Line with Step Draft
The step draft creates one face rotated about
the plane used as the Direction of Pull

9. Draft : Parting Line with Step Draft
Tapered and perpendicular steps in draft

10. Draft Analysis
You can check the draft angles on your model using the draft analysis tool. Draft analysis creates a color-coded rendition of the model faces based on the angle and the direction of pull criteria that you specify
examine angle changes within a face
