Hello,
I'm trying to make an independent copy of sub assembly "Assem1" without breaking top level references. See example below:
I've tried doing this using several different methods and always end up with broken references. Can anyone provide a solution?
Here is an example of a method I tried. First I make a copy of Assem1 with copy and paste:
Then I try to make the Assem1<3> copy independent by right clicking on the assembly and choosing "make independent". I am presented with a save dialogue. After giving the part a new name and clicking save, I get a warning that the references will be broken. It tells me to use the 'references' box to fix this, however there isn't a references box:
Any thoughts on a solution to this problem? This problem has caused a lot of headache for me when using top down assembly design.
Best regards,
Kevin
