      <p class="para_division">As mentioned earlier, you only need to pick an edge of a target solid to create a flange. The attachment face will be found automatically and highlighted. This face found by the flange is normally the shorter face of the two faces on either side of the selected edge. If you want to create the flange on the other face, then use <b class="uiTerm">Adjacent Face</b> to select the other face as the attachment face of the flange.
