body surface of an object to a different body as schema

Hi,

 

I have an assembly where 1 object has a body surface that I would like to shape on a different component body as schema.

 

I already did it in the past  but I forgot how I did it.

 

so I have a component (a press button - small square and circle in blue) and I would like to "copy the dimensions and the place (in XYZ) to create a simple 2D schema on another component object surface (wide blue rectangle), co I could cut it to make space for the button.

So How can I get the small square dimensions and place (XYZ) to create the same surface but on the wide blue rectangle ?

 

thx

Hi

Edit the bigger component, create a sketch, project the button geometry, extrude in cut mode, finish editing, add connections between components.
