Assembly cut dimensions? |
|
|
Hello
I have created a cut in assembly mode that intersects two parts within
an assembly, this cut is shown in the individual parts also.
I cant get the dimensions to show in the parts when I create a part
drawing. I end up putting the dimensions in manually!
Hope this makes sense?

their dimensions in a part drawing. Nor can you modify the dimensions in the part.
Those are only available in the assembly. Don't know of a "associate to part"
button yet, so I'm afraid you'll have to continue to put them in manually. Or use
the intersected cut to figure out where a part feature should go then create the
cut in the part. A lot of work to go through to get "shown" dimensions.

You can always active the part and make a cut, that cut will not be on
both parts. In assembly make a sketch. Then active one part and make
the cut then active the other part and make the same cut. Just an Idea. |

No, you're right, this is actually THE WAY TO DO IT!!! While you're in the
assembly, select the part, RMB 'Activate'. Then you're working on the actual PART
features. And even if you use assembly stuff for references, you can redefine the
feature to substitute local part references. Yeah, this is very cool stuff.
