Hello,
I have a question about Defer Update (Inventor 2011).
It works when I'm applying a constraint for example.
But when I delete a part, suddenly it starts updating .
I thought the whole point of using Defer Update, is that the document doesn't update, untill you hit the Update button.
Is there a way around this? Because I've got an assembly with multiple parts which need update.
But I want to delete them before they update (update costs a lot of time). Everytime I delete a part, it starts updating immediately..
Thanks in advance

I know and already thougt about that.
But there are multiple patterns which hold these parts that need to be updated.
And as fas as I know, you first need to delete the pattern, and then the part which was patterned.
But thanks for your reply.

I've just tested your suggestion and suppressing the components doesn't trigger an update.
But deleting the pattern will still cause an update .
Same goes for suppressed parts.

Also a nice idea . I appreciate your help very much.
I agree that the best way is to find a work around.
But still, when demoting, it causes an update .
So if you can think of more ideas , it's always worth a shot.

Now that's what I'm talking about .
I think this is easiest workaround at this time.
This will save me a lot of time!!
And, as I use a rule to determine which parts will be deleted, it'll take only very little code to change it for me.
Thank you very much!
