<p><b>Set tip</b> as this command is labeled in the contextual menu redefines the tip, which is the feature exposed outside of the Body. By default, the tip is the last feature added to the Body; but sometimes it can be useful to temporarily set the tip to a feature earlier in the tree. This may be done to add a sketch, datum geometry or a feature which in retrospect should have been created earlier in the Body's history.
</p><p>The tip is visually distinguished in the Model tree by a small white down arrow in a green circle overlayed on the feature's icon.

<li> The new tip is set to visible, and all elements below the tip are hidden from view. Elements newly created from that point will be placed under the tip, and above the other existing elements.</li></ol>
