Edit Definition of a Smart Component
You can add, delete, or modify associated components, features, and
mates of a Smart
Component.
To edit the definition of a Smart Component:
Open a component that has previously been defined
as smart.
When you establish a component
as smart in the Smart
Component PropertyManager, data captured in the component document
includes external references to associated components, plus information
necessary to create associated features and reconstruct the defining assembly.
Right-click Smart
Feature in the FeatureManager design tree and select
Edit in Defining Assembly.
A temporary assembly opens. It contains the Smart Component and its
associated components and features.
Make any necessary changes to the temporary assembly,
such as adding new components or modifying features.
Click Edit Definition
on the pop-up toolbar.
Make changes in the Smart Components PropertyManager,
such as selecting newly-added components for Components
associated with Smart Component or changing configurations
in the Configurator
Table.
Click .
Save the assembly and click Yes
to save the referenced models that have been modified.
Close the assembly.
The changes in the defining data are saved
in the Smart Component document. The temporary assembly disappears.
