To Channel All External References Through Skeleton Models
You can use reference control settings so that only external references via skeletons from the top downward are allowed:
1. Create a skeleton for each subassembly.
2. Set External components permitted for reference creation to Skeleton and layout models and clear the Use backup for forbidden external references check box.
3. Set Feature references to backup to References to other models.
These reference control settings are stored with the assembly and are not environment dependent.
