Replace a PRT with a ASM in a drawing
Replace a PRT with a ASM in a drawing
(OP)
I have a drawing that was detailed from a SLDPRT file. I am adding some PEM studs and nuts to it, but I'd like to save the extensive dimensioning I've done on it, and don't want a second "assembly level" drawing. Using conventional methods (Changing the reference file while opening drawing), Solidworks won't allow a replacement of a part reference with an assembly reference file.
Anybody got a trick for this so I won't have to redimension a new drawing?
Thanks,
Tim

I think I've submitted this issue as an enhancement request before but I think I'll do it again.
Thanks,

Good Luck...

I've used that approach before with PEM nuts and it seemed to work okay. I guess I'll have to try that with the stud.
Thanks,
