New question on flexible assemblies
I am about to create a large assembly and I'm decided whether to use flexible assemblies or not and i was wondering could you advise if it was a good or bad idea. So the project I'm working on will have a framework as its master assembly. I need to place several modules or sub assembly onto this frame where they will then be constrained. the sub assemblies are just parts in random positions with no constraints. would it be ok to bring in these sub assemblies and change them to flexible and then constrain them to the frame. Or the other option would be to pull in the parts in dividually and constrain them to the frame that way. Any advice?
thanks
I opened it up in IV2011 and got it ito work by making the cylinder assembly terminated flexible inside assembly, and making cylinder assembly flexible inside cylinder assembly terminated. I did this in the master positional representation and then just override the poisitional rep of the sub assemblies in the flexible rep. Do not override the flexible status. I have no idea why this works, but it did for me. I hope I explained this well enough.

start a new topic for best results, adding to an old semi-related post causes confusion and typically results in poor results for your new question.
Be sure to state your version and provide some screen shots, sample files, etc for best results.
