I'm working on a rather complicated assembly with a lot offeatures defined in context of other parts, including a couple ofweldments. In order to produce 2D drawings for these weldments,i've used the save bodies command to save the individual weldmentpieces in their own part files to be imported into the drawings.I've also utilized the as welded/as machined derived configurationson each of these parts. Long story short, I've got a lot of filesthat are VERY interdependant on one another.
Every once in a while when I rebuild the assembly, the program willget stuck in a loop where it repeatedly rebuilds the same featuresover and over. I've seen it eventually work to a solution afterseveral minutes before, but most of the time this goes on forlonger than I have the patience for and I have to kill the programin task manager.
I'm wondering 1) is this a common issue? If so, 2) what are somegood practices to use to avoid this situation besides avoidingin-context parts?
Thanks,SolidworksAdministration
