Description
You can now create a flat assembly from a multibody part. A new part is automatically created in the new assembly from each selected body. Construction bodies are excluded by default. The data sharing type used when creating the part from the body depends on the body type. Solid bodies use an external copy geometry feature to create the part, while Sheetmetal bodies use an inheritance feature to create the part. You can use various options to define the templates for creating the parts.
When the corresponding licenses are available, you can control the default update control settings and how the data sharing feature properties are propagated.
