New Part in Part Studio, Insert into Assembly in desired position

Member Posts: 1 PRO
I created a model with multiple Parts in Part Studio and I inserted them all into my Assembly positioned to how I want them to be. If I go back to my Part Studio and add a new Part to my model, it does not show up when I go back to Assembly. I have to insert the new Part individually and position it according to how the rest of my model is oriented in my Assembly.
Is there a way to update my Part Studio model that is within my Assembly to include all the new Parts I created and have the new Parts be in the position I set them in in Part Studio? (Instead of inserting and positioning each new Part in my Assembly one by one)

No, there is not a way.
Please create an improvement request over to the right. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Yes, very easy, in the insert dialog, expand the Part Studio, and click on the new created part.
And then the new part is in the position you want.

Bottom line - being able to insert an entire part studio is a convenience - it is not a a sub assembly.
Adding parts to a sub assembly adds them everywhere that sub assembly is used.
Adding a part to a part studio no more adds it to an assembly than creating a new SolidWorks part file will automatically add it to an assembly you are working on.
I hope this helps
