Why does "Form new subassembly" only work when I select a single component within an assembly using SW2019? When I select multiple components this command is grayed out or does not appear.

Unable to form new subassembly from selected components in SW 2019.

I have discovered the reason it is not working. I selected components that were patterned or mirrored. Will only work with components in the assembly that are not patterned or mirrored.

Works fine for me with SW2019 sp 3.0.

Hello,

Is one of your selections a component already within a subassembly?

All of your selections need to be from the same "level". You can't select components from two different (sub)assemblies and use form new assembly.
