2D Part Editor Failure - Creates Multiples of the Original Drawing
I am editing a part of a cabinet with 2D Part editor and when I go to re-draw the part and return to the original model it creates 2 new drawing tabs from the original file and they show as locked as I am already editing the original file... Not sureIs there a way to edit the Subassembly List?
When altering subassemblies through design data I've noticed duplicates and obsolete Subassemblies appearing in the Subassembly list. Is there a way to edit these? I use the subassembly clipboard which is a great tool but would like to remove obsolete32mm construction
