Of course that isthe ifeatures and won't show the file/details of how they were created.

In reality is just like any other adjustable sketch.. Use parameters and drive other dimensions off those.

Example.. Create a Part_length parameter and then maybe the parts width is Part_length/2 or something like that.

Then when creating the ifeature its just a matter of pulling those adjustable parameters into the right column.

My biggest issue with punch creation was how you are forced to only use 1 center point. Thats what always gets me.. 

IMO just keep playing around until you figure it out.. I probably attempted 50+ punches before I went.. oh crap.. now I get it. 

There are a few tutorials out there but not much.
