I would think this would be simple.....but I was very, very wrong.

I have modeled a part which is Dimension driven.

I want to create an assempley with that part, and a few structural shapes.

I want the structural Shape LENGTHS to be driven by faces on the inserted Part.

Cant seem to figure it out.

Very, very frustrating...

Any help would be aprreciated

No one else has this question

Jerry,

I'm not sure I really understand what you are trying to do. The simplest idea would seem to be to Extrude your structural shapes using the Up to Face option. To do this, you need to be editing your structural shape part in the assembly.

As Jerry said, it's difficult to determine exactly what you mean without a screenshot or something, but can't you edit the sketch that's used for the structural shape within the assembly, linking the sketch to the faces?
