Opening Partial Set of Objects from Workspace
When a workspace has a partial set of a CAD assembly in the workspace, you can use the CAD tool’s native actions to retrieve that partial set in session. The process flow is different for each CAD tool.
Opening a partial set of objects in Creo Parametric
You can use Creo’s Open Subset action to define a temporary representation to retrieve only the models whose CAD Documents are in the workspace. Ensure that the config.pro option, dm_search_primary_server is set to no.
1. In Creo, click File > Open and select the assembly in the File Open window.
2. Click Open Subset. Under Retrieval Customization dialog box, select the assembly components to retrieve.

You can select components from the graphics window and then use the right mouse button menu to mark them for retrieval.
