Deformable part changes are not reflected in the assembly

Deformable part changes are not reflected in the assembly

Greetings all!

I insert deformable part into assembly, and afterwards I edit some parameters of the deformable parts (not those wich drive deformability). But it is not reflected on parts already inserted into assembly. It is reflected only on those parts which I insert after making change. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a way around? How can I update those parts which are already in the assembly?

RE: Deformable part changes are not reflected in the assembly

In answer to your questions...

Not really.

Yes, actually there is.

Open the assembly and from the Assembly Navigator, select the Component of interest, press MB3 and select the 'Deform...' option. When the dialog comes up select the 'Delete' ( [X] )button. With the dialog still open, select the 'Create' button (1st icon on the Left) and enter the desired parameter(s) as you did originally and hit OK. Now close the dialog.
