I have an assembly that I am inserting a new component into. I start a new sketch and start adding relations however, SolidWorks will not let me select or add relations to two of the edge flanges in one of the existing components in my assembly.
Also, if I open the problem component I can select all of the other features of the component without any problems but the two suspect edge flanges do not highlight when clicking on them. Could this be a glitch cause by having an edge flange feature with more than 6 edges selected?
Very frustrating. Anyone have any ideas? I have included the assembly file with the base sketch of the part I need to add. I am trying to add colinear relations to the GH 007-01 part.
Quite strange indeed - I am seeing the same thing here. Please bundle it up and send it in to your VAR.
As a workaround, you can make your sketch line collinear to the bottom of the flange to the left of that front one. It appears to be the same length and will therefore hold your sketch in the proper position. Or make it collinear to the underlying sketch of that flange. Just show the sketch in the tree and you can then pick that.
