Copied Assembly Not Linked to Copied Drawing

updated with video


Previously, I could copy an assembly along with its drawing, and the two would remain linked. Any changes made to the new assembly were reflected in the new drawing. Since the last update, however, the copied drawing is now linked to the original assembly instead.

You must be doing something wrong.  The process of Copying as Assembly Model with the associated drawing creates an independent model assembly and its associated drawing.  The copied drawing is not linked to the original on my Fusion installation.  I am using the latest version, Fusion 2603.1.52.  Please post a clear video showing your steps.

This is a video of a product that I can share. This is a process I have used hundreds of times. I do not have a microphone on this computer at work. using

I went through, what I see, are the exact same steps you used but for me, it works as it is supposed to.  I open both the new assembly drawing and old one to prove the changes, made in the new assembly,  only happen to the new drawing.

The issue appears to be resolved. A linked assembly and drawing were successfully created. The resolution may be attributed to either an updated version of Fusion or the fact that only one instance of Fusion was open during the process. Previously, having multiple instances open did not affect this workflow. This outcome is significant for professionals who frequently utilize this function in their build processes.
