How to insert imported geometry into Part Studio feature tree?

I have to design parts around an imported surface/solid that I'd like to be able to update as needed at a later date. I've already built an extensive feature tree off of a preliminary surface but now I'm unable to substitute in a newly imported surface/solid. I can import the solid into it's own tab but can't seem to bring it into the feature tree of the active Part Studio. If I could "link" to the relevant surfaces as positioned in the Assembly, that would be ideal, but I can't find a way to do that either. I'm used to NX WAVE Geometry Linker, or SolidEdge/SolidWorks "inter-part link" features.

    Woops! Never mind, just found the "Derived" command. Exactly what I needed.

    Hi Michael, I have this issue too. I need to use imported geometry (surfaces) as cutting elements, but cannot get them into part studio from their tabs. Can you or someone help?
