Hi there,
I'm building a multibody part with 3 parts:
PCB solid body
Top Enclosure solid body
Bottom Enclosure solid body
The PCB has components that drive enclosure ribs / holes etc.
To build a well-made model parametrically, can I simply use the surfaces on the PCB solid to drive the dimensions on the enclosure, or should I use those surfaces to create reference geometry such as a plane, and build my enclosure features using the reference geometry?
I see that if the specified part were to change, I'd have to change the component, which would introduce a new face, which would break those links.
Any other issues to consider when approaching these types of references?
Thanks
