About Reopening non-Creo Models After Updates in Source CAD Systems
You can modify the non-Creo and Creo Elements/Direct models and assembly components in their source CAD systems such as Autodesk Inventor, CATIA, SolidWorks, NX, and Creo Elements/Direct and reopen the modified models in Creo.
The retrieval of the non-Creo and Creo Elements/Direct models after their update in their source CAD systems triggers their automatic update. The non-Creo and Creo Elements/Direct models and assembly components that you retrieve in session are up-to-date with their source models. You need not check their status or update them after you reopen them in Creo.

 You must make sure that you have the format-specific collaboration licenses so that the non- Creo models reopen with the up-to-date geometric content after their update in their source CAD systems. |
The modification and update of the non-Creo and Creo Elements/Direct components in their source CAD systems can render invalid some features or references. If the updates of the models in their source CAD systems cause retrieval failure or if model references fail and you encounter regeneration and feature application errors, you can reroute references. Alternatively, you can review the changes to the non-Creo and Creo Elements/Direct models and redo the updates in their source CAD systems.
