Edit in Context, Standard Content...

t_caryt_cary Member Posts: 9 ✭✭
To make a recess for a nut or bolt head, or to fully encapsulate a bolt head or make a holder for a nut in a 3D model...  It would be useful to be able to edit the Part Studio to make it all fit, ie Edit It In Context.
But the Standard Content items disappear when you Edit In Context.  How would I work around that?

    Just tried this out since it seemed a bit off.
    It would seem that the Standard content it's self is not the problem. There needs to be a previously defined in context that can be updated before the hardware shows when editing in context. The assemblies I worked with were in 2 different documents. My initial document had no previous in context edits to update but when I added something in context and inserted it I was given the option to update context then all standard content hardware showed in context.

    I think this may be something to ask support for help with.
