Hi all
When you right click on a part in a ass, there is a thing called “make Independent”, what is it and what does it do? thanks
Doug, Brian Cayer, and jaraak are discussing. Toggle Comments
is your part modeled in context or does it have assembly features that you have propagated to the part level? By making independant it acts the same way as breaking relations only for that part not your entire assembly.
Sorry not with you
I started in an ass, and build parts inside the ass as I went along. This parts are only saved in the ass. So what happen if I make them independent?
I believe then they would be saved off into a part file, not just saved in your assembly anymore. I am not 100% sure but that would be my best guess.
Doug,
Jaraak is right in that when (in 2009) you create a part in an assembly in is a virtual part until you save it outside the assembly.

Brian
