Cannot find part
Cannot find part
(OP)
I am trying to open an assembly, and its showing one of my parts in a suppressed mode. It says it cannot locate the file. Is there a way I can look for it and show where the file is. I had to move the part and now the assembly cannot find it. How do i tell the assembly to look "here" for it?






RE: Cannot find part
You can open the part before opening the assembly. Then ctrl-Q & save w/ updated pointers in assembly.
SW should prompt you to find the file if it can't find it.

Kind of messy but it works for me. I'd rather have a RMB option on the grayed out part to establish a new path.

Open your assembly and un-suppress the part. SolidWorks will tell you it cannot find file. SolidWorks will bring up the browse dialog box and then you manually browse to the location and open it.
