Dear all,
I gonna try to explain
I have an assembly (named 1.asm), with two sub-assemblies (named 1-2.asm and 1-3.asm)
I want to adjust the slide of upper plate (1-3.asm) from lower plate (1-2.asm) from 0 to 200mm; depending of the upper level assembly (named 00.asm , 01.asm , 02.asm ...)
For example, I want a distance of :
- 20mm between 1-3.asm and 1-2.asm in 00.asm
- 50mm between 1-3.asm and 1-2.asm in 01.asm
- 100mm between 1-3.asm and 1-2.asm in 02.asm
- ...
I thought it was possible with something like the "make flexible" tool but I can't select the dimensions to make flexible...
Precision : I want that original assembly 1.asm stay with a dimension of 0mm between 1-2.asm and 1-3.asm
I hope that somebody understand me and can help me
Flexibility only works one level up. So if you are trying to make a component of one of the sub-assemblies move in the top assembly (1.asm) than this is not possible. If you don't like this, there is an idea of the enhancement here (vote it up): Allow flexibility at any assembly level, not just next higher assemblies
If you are trying to change the distance between the 2 sub-assemblies than you first need to make sure that they are constrained with a distance constraint so there is a dimension you can make flexible.
