Question

Start part

I created a start part and a drawing for it.


When I start a new part and select the above created start part as template and pick “copy associated drawing” brings the drawing but not format. I have to update the format or keep the format in my current workspace before I start working on new part file.


Is there a way you can get a drawing file along with its format?


Thanks in advance.

For more clarification. I already assigned start part, format locations in my config file.


If I create a drawing by selecting drawing template it will bring the template along with it.


Issue is If I am creating a new part file by selecting a "start part" and pick option "


Thanks,

The things that I would check:



* Start part and drawing are in the same folder with identical
names.
* All appropriate config options are set.
* There are not extra config files loading that may be overriding
your set options.



Beyond that, I dunno.

So
