Changing the Length of the Bolts

Now that you have added the nuts, you can see that the bolts are not long enough. You can edit the definition of the bolts to change their length.

  1. In the FeatureManager design tree, right-click one of the bolts, and select Edit Toolbox components.
  2. In the PropertyManager, select 60 in Length.
    The Part Numbers list for the new length setting displays Part Number Unassigned. This is because the description that you added earlier was for a bolt with a length of 50. To reference the bolt with a length of 60, click Add and add the description: Tutorial Bolt 60.

    The bolt changes length and extends past the nut.

  3. Click .
  4. In the FeatureManager design tree, right-click the other bolt, and select Edit Toolbox components.
  5. In Part Numbers, double-click Tutorial Bolt 60 and click .
  6. Click Save (Standard toolbar).

Congratulations! You have completed this lesson.
