Inherited constraints in master model drawing
Inherited constraints in master model drawing
(OP)
Usually you do not see constraints with a master model the work part. We have a file worked on by an associate where a bunch of (mostly conflicting) constraints show up in the master model. They are all listed as inherited constraints if you hover over them. They cannot be deleted. They dont seem to be affecting anything but I imagine some assembly restructuring or bad practice caused this and we want to avoid this. I did a search and didnt find much. thanks

RE: Inherited constraints in master model drawing
Now there IS a way to remove these 'inhertied' constraints, but IF you do the components in the sub-Assembly will return to their original as-constrained positions which may NOT be what you want, so perhaps it's best to just leave well enough alone. Having inherited constraints in an Assembly, even if it's a Master Model Drawing, is nothing to lose sleep over.

Now select the component on that line (the sub-Assembly), press MB3 and you should see an option titled 'Remove Position Override'. Select this item and the inherited constraints will be removed.
