Creating WRIST ASSEMBLY
Next create the assembly drawing WRIST ASSEMBLY:
1. Click Spotlight in the status bar.
As a result, the active part has a normal appearance and all non-active parts are shown in magenta dotted lines.
2. Ensure that the Creo Elements/Direct Drafting top part is empty.
a. Click Structure and then in the Parts group, click Edit.
b. Click Top.
c. In the Utilities group, click Delete.
d. In the Utilities group, click Select > All.
e. Click Confirm.
3. Rename the top part with the assembly drawing name you wish to see in the parts list.
a. Click Structure and then in the Parts group, click Browser.
The Part Browser opens.
b. In the Part Browser, right-click Top and click Rename.
c. Rename Top as WRIST ASSEMBLY.
The name of the active part in the status bar changes to WRIST ASSEMBLY. This part contains only the assembly name WRIST ASSEMBLY but no drawing elements.
4. Now load the first part of the assembly, for example the wrist pin.
a. Click File > Open.
b. Select wristpin as the filename of the drawing to be loaded.
Creo Elements/Direct Drafting prompts you to indicate a reference point to position the drawing.
c. Specify a reference point.
5. Repeat steps 2 to 4 for the drawings:
retainclip1.mi
retainclip2.mi
6. Store the final assembly drawing as wrist_assy.
