Hi I'm creating a box of sorts to house wiring https://cad.onshape.com/documents/fa18fb868771d72a4e185359/w/04b37138a3afba33db045276/e/b1b55f437273a31922cdeb53
Now where the lid and the box meet, there are two snap fittings, I would like to know how i can leave a mark on the box so that i can extrude remove a block so that the lid fits nice and clean, how can i do that?

yamazaki - hello!
The capability you are looking for is 'In-Context' editing.
There are many videos and webinars on the website that show how to do this, but here is a public document showing what i think you asked for.
In addition to the In-Context feature, i also added a 'named position view' so that you can always return to the 'closed' position to update the context if the geometry changes.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions
