Claim 16:
17. A computer comprising:
a processor coupled to a memory and a graphical user interface, the memory having recorded thereon a computer program including instructions for designing, with a CAD system, a 3D modeled object representing a mechanical part, that when executed by the processor causes the processor to be configured to:
display a B-rep representing at least a part of the mechanical part, the B-rep having faces and edges,
select, by graphical user interaction, at least one face of the B-rep representing the at least the part of the mechanical part,
automatically by the CAD system, recognize a set of faces representing a bump including the selected at least one face of the B-rep, by:
determining a first set of faces representing a depression and a second set of faces representing a protrusion, the first set of faces and the second set of faces both including the selected at least one face of the B-rep, and
selecting, among the faces representing the depression and the faces representing the protrusion, a set of faces having a shortest boundary curve perimeter and being different from both the selected at least one face and the B-rep, the selected set of faces forming the set of faces representing the bump; and

enable automatic performance of a single and simultaneous edition of all the faces representing the bump and/or of all edges bounding those faces.
