Breaking model dependency?

TracyWillis · ‎Dec 08, 2009

When you have a missing model with dependency; there is supposed to be a Right Click > Break Dependency option in the reference viewer. How can I turn on this functionality? For some reason, when I select the link of the missing model and right click, the only option that shows up is the “info” option. Are there special configuration or permission settings that have to be set to allow users to manually break the model dependency?

I know there is an Auto Resolve option when checking in.

It does not always work and now I want to break these links before attempting a check in?

Tracy,
I am not aware of any config options for this functionality.
For missing dependencies related to interchange assemblies, I have seen
both scenarios. Some could be deleted and others could not. No clue why
there is this difference. )o:

Yes - That is what I want!

I select the radio button & select the link.

BUT the only option that shows is INFO.

Break Dependency isn't in my right click menu.

Does anyone know why and what I need to do to correct it.

We submitted a similar issue to support and I believe WF4.0 M110 solved it.
