Dear all!
Recently we upgraded from Solidwork2021 to Solidworks2025 SP2.
We use the option "Search external references in:"
We want Solidworks to search for parts in a particular folder first instead of the same folder where the assembly is located.
In SW2021 this worked fine.
The assembly opens a part at the Referenced file location, even though the part is in the same folder as the assembly.
In SW2025
The assembly opens a part in the same folder, when the part is deleted/renamed it opens the part at the Referenced file location.
The rules should be:
- open document with same name
- search in referenced document folders
- path of active document.
It appears 2 and 3 are mixed up in 2025
It this a bug? Or did something changed?
Anyone recognizes this problem?
Thanks for the help!
