WPONG Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Greets -- Another assembly management question (reference the screenshot attached): I would like to add "Bolts" to the assembly "concept3" and I'm struggling to do so. Background: 1. I have a scene in which I have created an assembly "concept3." (top gold box) 2. (in case it matters: I've made 2 more linked instances of this assembly). (bottom gold box) 3. I've also created a pattern of bolts called (you guessed it) "Bolts." (blue box) I can't seem to figure out how to add "Bolts" to my assembly "concept3". I've tried dragging "Bolts" to a place just below the "concept3" text (ie, just above the "VIM201 Side Cam" text), and other places... Ideas, or something I'm missing? Thanks. --Will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ysinitsyn Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 1. Delete pattern 2. Move bolt to assy 3. Recreate the pattern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsaucier Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 The other option is to highlight the pattern, go to Assembly Ribbon tab and select option to assemble. Then you should be able to drag as well. I have made it good practice to always put patterns into an assembly feature. They are much easier to work with that way.

tlehnhaeuser Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 yup the boys are right, simply making patterns assemblies allows for easier management Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
