Abstract
Methods for product data management and corresponding systems and computer-readable mediums. A method includes receiving a CAD model in the data processing system, the CAD model a plurality of features and constraints, including optional constraints. The method includes receiving a user operation to manipulate a seed feature, and identifying a plurality of optional constraints corresponding to the user operation. The method includes sorting the optional constraints and applying a sorted optional constraint. The method includes performing the user operation according to the applied constraints to produce a modified CAD model and storing the modified CAD model.
