AFX Custom Equipment WINDCHILL Components

Hi,

I made a custom equipment in AFX which is an assembly, called A.asm, composed of two parts, A_1.prt & A_2.prt . A_1.prt is also a custom part which will be new but A_2.prt is a standard part which is found in our Windchill Library. 

When I insert a new equipment A, it creates a new assembly of A.asm and new parts of A_1.prt & A_2.prt . I would like that A_2.prt be imported from the library instead of being created as a new part. Is it possible?

 

I have tried the AFX option FOR_INTRALINK_33 to YES and the hidden option LOAD_COPY_COMPONENTS_FROM_INTRALINK to YES. But it doesn't work. 

In the AFX folder, I only have the A.asm and the A_1.prt.

The sel_list.txt file is set as A asm_copy.

Thank you.

Hi @JF_BMH,

 

this can be defined by adding a text parameter with name BUW_NO_COPY and value Y
to the part or to the  component feature of the part in the assembly context.
