Description: Creating a partition by projecting edges works similarly to using the edge projection tool in the Sketcher. The face is partitioned by a perpendicular projection of the selected edges onto it. You can choose to project the edges or to project and extend them so they reach the edges of the selected face. If you do not extend the edges, the partition may be incomplete, as shown by the center section in Figure 12–5.

You can partition faces using the Create Partition dialog box or by selecting the Project edges tool in the Mesh module toolbox. The faces to be partitioned must belong to parts or independent part instances of an assembly. Dependent part instances cannot be partitioned.
