OK, there's surely a way to do this.
Have two parts, both already modeled. A stand and a caster. Wouldlike to use the caster to derive a sketch on the stand, to locateholes, through which will go bolts that attach the caster to thestand.
I can "insert part" the caster into the stand, but I cannot line upcenter lines, or that sort of thing, and sketches I put in thecaster model don't show.
(Alternatively, how do I edit a part, able to add features, in thecontext of an assembly that guides these features.)
