Change of part reference in a mep

2D plans Layout
1

Hello

Here is my pb:

- I have an MEP of a part that was made on an assembly.

- I want to change the reference of the view so that it just points to the part and not to the assembly (which is never used in the system...)

In an assembly, we just have the component replaced, but in a mep, does anyone have an idea?

I tried in the file opening window, to change the references, but sw wants to have the same file type (sldasm => sldasm).

Hello

Select the file in the explorer by opening it in SW.

Then use the "References" button.

You can then edit them.

if your part is in an assembly and you only want your part

Simply open the part in this assembly

to open it and create a plan of this said room

Hello

It seems to me that it is impossible!

We have to redo the whole plan!

Just a clarification: it's sw12.

@remrem: I tried, but the references button doesn't allow you to change between assembly to part or other.

@gt22: It was to avoid that.

@pl: I'm going to start with this. Hoping there aren't others lying around like this...

You also have the possibility to go through Draftsight from your 3D

See this tutorial

PS: even if you have to redo the drawing, the easiest way is to open the part in the assembly as I have already advised you and to do your pure part drawing

if you want to change a single part in an assembly mep knowing that the mep corresponds to 3D you must imperatively go through 3D

By clicking on the view in question, then in the left pane "select bodies"

 

Choose the body to display and validate

@remrem: Do you go through SW Explorer?

By using SW Explorer, it works, you can replace an assembly with a part. Well then, when opening the mep, as these are not the imported dimensions, they are no longer associated with the part (I'm unlucky today). So it comes down to redoing it or almost (we keep the views) ... But it still works.

 

@bart: I don't really see your solution. On the mep, the other components (of this temporary assembly) are already hidden. But the temporary assembly must disappear because it is never referenced in the systems (except this mep).

@Bart. Your solution works very well ... in the case of a mechanically welded. Your set is made in one piece. And you have to choose a particular piece in it. (you have a .prt file in short)

 

But here, in the case of an .asdm I deeply doubt :D
