Edit Derived Parts
Derived
part documents have some limitations:
You can only add features in a derived part document.
You cannot delete or modify the features of the
original part in the derived part document.
You can only edit the original part in its own
window.
You cannot change the configuration of a derived
part using the External References For
dialog box.
To edit the original part from which
another part is derived:
-
Right-click the derived part, and select Edit
In Context.
If the part was derived using an insert part or a mirror part, the original part document
is opened.
If the part was derived from an assembly component, the assembly
document is opened.
-
Change the original part as needed.
The changes are reflected in any derived
parts that have an external reference to the original part.
