Adding draft angles to imported/existing geometry

This is a feature I really miss, being used to Onshape that has a very robust draft angle functionality.

I’d like a draft angle functionality too. I started a new technique for adding a draft to a flat surface. I first add a construction plane, “On curve at point” then choose an edge of the plane I want to draft. Then I go to the plane and sketch the geometry for a draft angle. Then I extrude the sketch a random amount and create a body. Then I use Replace Face for the undrafted face to match the drafted face. Then I delete the body.

There is another way with dragging original sketch lines to get the body to respond but it can get tedious to find the right combo of locked points.

If anyone has another technique I’d like to hear more.
