Configuring lengths

Configuring lengths

Configuring lengths

(OP)
Hi!
I have an assembly with two copies of a part mated together and I want them to have different lengths. I know dimensions can be configured, but the lenght of my part isn't actually dimensioned in the sketch, instead one of the sketch points is related to a point in the assembly. That forces the same lenght on all configurations of the part. Any way around that? Would make things easier...



 

RE: Configuring lengths

You'll need two different parts.
