Design Tables in Assemblies
Design Tables in Assemblies
(OP)
I have design tables made for individual subs and parts. The tables work great when I am looking at just the individual parts.
But when I want to change the dimension in these tables, I have to find the part in my FeatureManager -> Open Part -> Config -> Edit Design Table
Then of course I can't see how it looks until I load up my main assembly again.
Is there a way to edit the design table located in a sub-assembly without having to leave my main assembly?
Thanks :)

RE: Design Tables in Assemblies
A Few years ago I made a couple of examples of how to use a DT to control an assembly, without being directly link to the assembly (attached is that example).
To use these you have to make sure you have Macros enabled in your version MSOffice.
I hope you find an answer to you question, but I don't think that is possible, the way you describe it.

RE: Design Tables in Assemblies
I am attaching a simplified version of my problem with my actual part, and subbed in some dummy parts.
The design table is located inside of "silo chute.prt" and you can see how it changes the angle on chute. I needed to modify this angle to get the tips of the augers as close as possible.
Let me know if the assembly works (I think there are some external refs to the actual assembly, but it should still work)
