   MODIFICATION:
  Following Step 4, the following information has been
  added about the Context feature:
  
  "The Context feature is not necessarily the support
   element on which the curve has been drawn. Indeed,
   by default, the Context feature is the last Sheet
   Metal feature that has been created, or modified,
   that is the current feature in the specification tree."
  
  This modification will be available with the next
  CATIA Version 5 Release 7 Documentation Service Pack (SP2).
