How to check for minimum feature violations in a design

How can I check that there are no features less than a certain minimum feature size in my parts? Currently, I just have to manually look over the design and check any features that look like they may be a problem then submit it for production and fix any areas that I missed that were found in pre-production.

    Do you mean stuff like modeling inner corner with R5 fillet while the min tool is dia 20?

    I don't think there is built-in function for this but I suppose feature script could examine existing model for certain geometry? 

    I would probably just use variables for easy fixing. If I'm even close to what you are after, you could create template doc with set of variables that determine min and max size of things?

    It probably wouldn't take much to iterate over all surfaces and make sure each surface area wasn't less than some limit. It might be harder to break a model down into logical features.
