Strategy when designing in context for migrating revisions back to the context assembly?

dave_franchino

Hey Folks, 

Conceptual block here on designing in context. If I edit a part in an assembly in context and ADD new parts, is there an easy way to migrate these parts back to the assembly I was using for in-context editing? 

I have an assembly which is the product of another (sub)assembly and then parts from a part studio. 

I did an in-context edit and added a few parts to the part studio.  They do appear inside my part studio when I switch to that context. But I was expecting the parts to "appear" in my assembly ala Solidworks and they do not. Do I need to manually go in and add/assemble these new parts to that assembly, even though it was that assembly that was used to create the parts?

Sorry for my confusion!

Does this video help at all?

Yes, you have to go back and manually add the newly created parts to the assembly. OR, do as in the above video and select "as rigid". When you do that, its all or none, however.
