I use Inventor 2015 and I've created a quite large assembly and also a idw drawing for this.
From this assembly I want to create some other children of this with some different particularities, some parts are larger, smaller… I used Design Assistant to create these children assemblies and it worked well. Now I want to create the children idw drawings for all of these assemblies. The problem is that the new idw files refer to the old assemblies where I copied from.
Is there a way that I can create a new drawing from an old one but assign to the views of this the other assemblies? I this way I will not have to create new drawing for each version of a parent assembly.
Thanks,

In IDW environment you can try Manage -> Modify group -> Replace Model Reference.
😉 But in most cases some additional work is needed.

Yes, it works well. It needs some additional work but is less than I'd create a new one from the scratch.
Thank you very much.
