Limiting the projection of coplanar entities

When a sketch-based feature is created or edited, you can set a limit for the number of coplanar entities that Abaqus/CAE automatically projects from the background. By default, Abaqus/CAE automatically projects 300 coplanar entities. The limit you choose for projected coplanar entities applies to all sketches in the Abaqus/CAE session.
