What happens if I a save-as on a fusion drawing?

[stollartist64]

I have a drawing of an assembly and need a new drawing of a similar assembly. If I "save-as" the drawing, will it also save-as the assembly? Also, will all the components be unrelated (to original) copies?

Thanks

AGAIK - nope. Save-as creates a copy of your existing drawing. It keeps all links to the existing assembly. You end up with one assembly with two connected drawing.

IMHO you have to export the drawing (not the assembly!) via the web-front-end. This will pack the drawing and the assembly (and all related components) in one file. After that, create a new project and upload (not file open) the exported drawing into the new project. You should end up with an assembly and a connected drawing with the new project. But this is guessing. I've never tested it.

Maybe there is a better way to create this second drawing. Let me explain what I need. The drawing I created is of a vault assemble. I have to provide a second drawing for the same project and the only difference is that vault #2 is 12" deeper. Is there a way to add the deeper vault to the original assemble, turn off the original vault and create a new drawing of the assembly with the deeper vault visible and the original one invisible?  Something similar to Simplified Rep in Creo.  Thanks in advance.
