Change values in many sketches from assembly?

Hi,

I have a big assembly with parts containing a sketch, called Sketch15. I want to change a value in this sketch in all parts from the assembly. Is it possible to change all the sketches from within the assembly? I've tried to make an equation in the assambly: "D1@Sketch15" = 10 But it doesn't work. When I do "D1@Sketch15@Part1.Part" = 10 it works for Part1...but I want to make it happend for all the parts in the assembly. How do I access all the parts in the equation, not just one at the time?

Thanks!

Molgan,

I do not think there is a way to do this directly.

I have controlled multiple parts at the assembly level by drawing sketches at the assembly level. Use the assembly sketch to control features of the part sketches. There are a lot of possibilities here.
