The process of PP now is pretty straightforward. Basically the user defines its own workpiece (he might also automatically get a suggested "box") using a dimension driven sketch. That workpiece can change afterwords.
After that, he calls a specific feature for splitting the part. In this "easy" case we have just one mold direction and the user will select just one PP. In case of multiple directions, he can select multiple PPs and get the part separated accordingly.
Notice that the resulting core and cavity are created in external reference files. Notice how the history tree is automatically populating.
With Xref parts, the moldmaker could also have separate groups of people working on separate parts. For instance, supposing to work on a very complex part such as a bumper, a group of user could work on the core and the other on the cavity. In order to do that it is in any case suggested to integrate the standard MoldDesign solution with the think3 PDM solution.
