You can import equations from a text file into a part or
assembly.
-
In the part or assembly, click
-
In the Equations dialog box,
click Import.
-
In the dialog box:
-
Select the text file.
-
Click Open.
-
In the Import Equations
dialog box:
-
Select or clear Link to
File.
-
In the Equations
column, clear the check mark for any equation you do not want to
import.
-
In the Link
column, clear the check mark for any equation you do not want to link to
the external file.
When Link to
file is selected, changes you make in the text file
update the equations and variables in the model.
-
Click Import.
The equations from the text file are imported into the model.
If
Link to
File was selected, changes you make in the text file are propagated
to the model. Then in the
Equations dialog box:
- A Link column appears
and indicates which equations are linked to the file.
- The Link to external
file check box is selected and the path to the external file
displays.
Equations and global
variables that are linked to an external file cannot be modified in the
Equations dialog box. They must be
edited in the external file. To remove the link and modify an equation in the
dialog box, clear the box for that equation in the Link column.
