01:41
browse to and select the exercise file model to be digitized and then click open
01:47

01:49
confirm the units are correct and all the layers are enabled and then click finish.
01:55
At first, it appears as if nothing has changed
01:58
in the tree view,
01:59
turn off the visibility of the starting point caD file,
02:03
and now you can see the second caD file you imported,
02:06
turn off the visibility of the surface and then zoom
02:09
in on the area you want to work with.
