When creating an assembly and its parts for testing generally
we give them generic names. When it is time to add them to our
database we assign them numbers. The drawings for these parts are
already created. Sometimes we rename the part or assembly and save
it into our parts database before we do this with the drawings, if
you do it this way you will notice that you can reattach the
drawing to the part but the part in the drawing you can not. Does
anyone know a way I can replace the part/assembly in a drawing
while keeping the dimensions? I have thought of doing a save as
when I open the file within the drawing but all the parts have had
changes made to them for our database and I will lose all the
information if I do it this way.
