Thomas Wehle Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I've started a parametric model for a stringer pallet. The length and the width of the pallet is controlled by the sizebox of the assembly, but whenever I change the the size box, the model jump out of the yellow box. Everything else seem to be correct. I would like to have the model to be fixed to the size box. I've moved the anchor (for the parts and assembly) around and it doesn't seem to be fixing the problem. Can anyone help?

mmccall Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I have seen this for a long time .. I have no idea why this happens.. I would like to hear a suggestion on this also.. I have even looked around for some options and changed kernels.. no change... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlehnhaeuser Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Quick Look: When I drag handle then use "Reset Sizebox" it appears the problem goes away after that. tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This works except now that I've lost the formulas in the intellishape sizebox, but I can fix that easy enough. Looks like there is a sequence in setting up parametric assemblies. First creates the formulas, reset the sizebox before assigning forumlas to the intellishapes. Carey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmccall Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 I just did a scale resize on an imported assembly yesterday... after resizing.. the assembly was all broken apart.. after hitting the regen it went back together... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cary OConnor Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Well the issue I believe is the way sizebox size when putting values in the sizebox fields (in the property dialog). They always size from center. The Sizing options are for when the handles are pulled. So the only way to get this to work correctly, is to use the handles of the assembly to drive the profile geometry (not the sizbox of the parts/features).
