Hello,
I've looked around a little bit and can't seem to find a direct answer. It's looking like what I want to do might not be possible, but Im fairly surprised this isn't a more popular request:
In essence, I'd like to be able to have a "main" design template, then create different occurrences of that design with different parameters. The construction will all be the same, but dimensions will vary.
I understand that I can derive a component and its respective parameters to another design, so that when I update parameters in the "main" design all of its derived versions get updated as well. This is not what I'm looking for.
What I'd like is to be able to insert a templated version of a component into a design, then change its parameters from there. I don't want those changes to be reflected in the original version of the part.
This seems like a fairly straightforward feature. I'm surprised more folks don't have use for this sort of thing. Even if I derive and break link, there's still no way to go back and edit those parameters that I used for modeling the thing in the first place.
Am I missing something? Does this all make sense? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jason
