Open multi components in one design

How. Can I open multiple components into single design? Components are individual files in folder. I don't want to break link and do want to edit.

Those requirements are conflicting.  Choose one or the other.

If I understand your question, the answer depends on the type of Fusion 360 License.  If you have a Subscription or Educational license you can add components as Linked External files into a common assembly and then if you want to edit them, you can use the Edit in Place option.  With any type of license you can do the same thing but to edit the file, you will have to right click on the Linked External file and select Open.  After editing and saving, return to the assembly and use the update icon.

 

The attached Screencast was done using a Fusion 360 Personal license.

Hi,

I would like to point out that it is customary in the forum to mark as "accepted solution" those contributions that have given decisive hints to the solution.
