You can break the link from the original part file to the inserted part
file. By default, when you open a third-party
CAD part
file, the inserted part file retains the link to the original file.
To break the link from the original part file:
-
In the FeatureManager design tree, right-click the inserted
third-party
CAD
file and click Break Link.
- In the dialog box, click one of the following:
- Yes, break the link (cannot be undone) . Breaks the link of the inserted part file from the original file.
- Do nothing and cancel the command . Exits the break link command.
Select Do this for all components
to
break
the
links
to all the components of the assembly file.
This is an irreversible action. After you
break the links, you cannot reconnect or update the part with the original part.
The Import Feature PropertyManager is also unavailable.
