I have an assembly and an associated drawing for that assembly. I need to create a revision of the assembly and associated revised drawing. I ran into problems last time with keeping the 2 files linked and basically had to recreate the drawing.
I think I would like to save the assembly with a new file name (increment rev #) and also create a copy of the drawing file with incremented file name that references the new assembly. Then I could start modifying the assembly and the new drawing file would be properly linked and update. However, I don't see a way that I can create both new files at once. And I can't find a way to change the assembly links on a drawing file (if I make a copy of the drawing file 2nd).
Note that I do not have a PDM system.
Is there a proper way to do this?
