Hello, how to make 2 rooms completely free?

Hello

In Solidworks, I created 1 part and then its drawing.

Then I created a 2ndpiece by taking the first one and recording under another reference and then I created the2nd drawing.

 

Now I realize that the 2 pieces and drawing are linked.

How can I change one and not the other. (room + drawing). ?

 

Thank you.

Can you give us a picture of your problem to help you? Stp

 

Attached are my 2 pieces that just have the head that differ in Ø.

Hello

All you have to do is cut and paste a part and its drawing on the desk and then renaming them, of course using Solidworks. By renaming the part you will see which drawing it is linked with and in case there are both you will delete the wrong one.

Why not make a configuration of the first room???

Hello

Modify the reference of your second shot before its opening to make it point to the right part

All you have to do is make a composition to take away by checking the box include drawings

to rename the pieces and that's it.

 

Otherwise, when opening the second room, when you ask to create a drawing, you have to answer "no" to the question "A drawing already exists blah blah blah.... "

Another idea: in each drawing, make file/look for references.
 This will tell you which files are called.

To correct, sylvain.carvalho's solution seems to me the simplest (in this case...)

Important thing: SW does not manage paths so if your 2 parts have the same name when you load the 2nd drawing, SW will use the part that is already in memory.

Hello

Uh, guys, there's a function made for that, directly at the opening of a drawing. In the file opening interface there is the "references" button that allows you to change the assignment of a piece to a plan.

You have to select the drawing, then click on reference and point to the right file. 2s to break everything for the manipulation.
