Associaitvity in Drafting

Hello, I have a part and assembly in drafting, and was assigned to include associativity...I dont even know if im spelling it right, however, I am hoping someone can let me know where to find this task.
-Thanks

It is there by default. Just dimension between geometry of the model and it will be associative.

Oh, I understand now, thanks!

RE: Associaitvity in Drafting

Mrbobbyjoe,
   Detailing parts in UG can be thought of as a WYSIWYG thingy (What You See Is What You Get...).  In otherwords, under no circumstances should you use the annotation editor to tweak a dimension (say from .2494 to .2500).  This causes the dimension that you altered to always remain what you changed it to, and will not change if the model changes.
   There is an easy way to detect the manually edited dimensions in a drawing, so no cheating.  smile  You will be tempted, as becoming proficient with the drafting package is a challenge in itself, but with a bit of sweat and determination you'll master it.

Good luck...
