The .Save2 will save without a confirmation prompt, unlike .Save. Solved by Cadmanto. In Solidworks, when I open it, all the parts are solids, when I save it as a part, it remains a solid? The reduced detail decreases memory consumption. It is because the feature recipes and the parameters are already captured (saved), the mass prop can be evaluated when the geometry becomes up-to-date. When I use the Shrinkwrap feature, it turns everything into surfaces. Is this possible? If the base part contains multiple visible solid bodies, select the required bodies to create a multi-body part. Step 1: Open Inventor and import assemblies from SOLIDWORKS actual assembly and allowed modifications. Use the Simplify command to reduce the content within an assembly by removing components, features, and output a simplified part file.

You can now save and close your template file. Whenever a part geometry is changed, the mass will need to be recomputed. If the base part contains a single body, creates a single body part. It seems that the most logical way to approach this would be to use promote and demote. only found the ipn files. Creates a multi-body part that retains selected components as individual solid bodies. Most often when I'm doing this I'm removing subassembly_A and subassembly_B from the top level assembly, so I delete them from the assembly at this point. Then I click the Save button while in the top level assembly and set subassembly_A and subassembly_B so that they will not save. I tried using pack and go on an assembly. If the Update Physical Properties on Save options is turned on, the affected files should be prompted to save. In the Derived Part dialog box, model elements are displayed in a hierarchy. The Simplify command is not accessible when the model is in Express mode. What I need is to take some parts from subassembly A, some parts from subassembly B, and save those parts as a completely new assembly C. I don't want the assembly->subassembly relationship in the original file to be affected, I just want to create a new subassemly file without having to place and constrain all the individual parts again.

It is set up this way to allow you to have additional processes done after the assembly, and for them to show on the correct drawings. For more information see To Work with Presets. i have the same issue, but i don't understand way it need to be so complicated. If you save twice, it works. I'm starting with a STEP file (from a vendor). It updates the mass of every sub-component (part or assembly), but not the top assembly, unless there is no save dialog for multiple files. Go to Solution. When you click Create and select a plane on which to sketch, the part environment is activated. Creating an in-place part has the same result as inserting a previously created part file. Okay lets take the "can't change anything" out of there. I've done a bit of research on it and I don't believe this particular question has been asked before. Go to Solution. Besides. So, what I think you are asking is to take various parts from certain sub-assemblies and marry them together to formulate yet a different sub-assembly? I can upload the .stl version if you would need that. It does not update the mass of the top assembly in case there is a save dialog for multiple documents. Inventor has a very nice dialog box that allows users to see and manipulate BOM's from either the assembly environment or the drawing environment. If we have update everything, all files will have mass, but if we change some low level part, all structure above will have to be computed to get the new mass. This options should at least save proper mass, if you save it once and release it, but it does not, if it is not saved correctly as you described and as in above pictures. One idea I had was to save copies of subassembly A and subassembly B. If required, turn off the Show All Objects check box to display only exported elements in the list. Somehow update mass does not run properly on top assembly (it is still enabled after saving, while on other documents is not). I don't want to post any files here from my actual project. In Inventor - start a new Part file, go Insert-->Import. Part now has mass updated, but assembly does not. A geometric constraint is applied (by default) between the selected face and the face created from the new sketch. Either you save or you don't. Success! This is done by associating the geometry included from another part, and designate the part as adaptive. When you click Create and select a plane on which to sketch, the part environment is activated. For each of the listed feature types specify which you want to remove and the way you want to remove them: Substitutes are model states based on a simplified model. We have "Recomputable update" set to yes. If you prefer, you can make the constraint adaptive by setting an option on the Assembly tab of the Application Options dialog box. Go to Solution. Optionally, select a built-in preset to use. Using the project command select the feature edges wanted in the part file. It is the equivalent to a custom part in a parts list. Auto-suggest helps you quickly narrow down your search results by suggesting possible matches as you type. Creates a single solid body derived part with seams between planar faces. What I can remember is that the Mass property shown is stored on two different places internally and there sometimes it goes wrong. Disabled components remain included, however. Right-click the Substitute you want to edit and click, In the browser, right-click the substitute model and click, In the browser, right-click the and select.
