Reference Skeleton

Reference Skeleton

I have an assembly with a guide sketch and a profile structure that has lost the relationship with the guide sketch.

I have to do twice. The first time he lost the reference. There is the possibility of re-referencing the reference sketch.

When you work with structural element, the program gives problems.

You appear to be mixing ordinary Inventor assembly-management tools with Frame Generator.   

In your browser, you can see the Frame assembly has been mirrored (green arrow).  There is also another frame assembly that has been copied and mirrored.  Assuming they all come from the same layout, the assembly structure will fail at some point because you are breaking the structure required for the frame generator tools.

 

Frame Generator assemblies need the following structure:

1. Parent assembly
2. Layout component
3. Frame assembly (and "Reference Skeleton") are created automatically by Inventor.  The Frame assembly should never be treated as a "regular" subassembly because it needs to maintain the above structure, or it will break.)
4. Frame members 

If you need to copy or mirror a Frame Generator assembly, create a NEW assembly, place the assembly (1) above into that assembly and mirror/copy it there.  This will preserve the structure (1 > 2 > 3 > 4) required, and you won't break the relationship between layout and frame assembly.

It is a very robust workflow providing you don't break the 1 > 2 > 3 > 4 structure.

I disagree. The structure module has many problems.

I've figured out where my problem comes from.

That structure had taken advantage of another that had the same name of skeleton.

And by putting that structure into the whole. I took the skeleton reference of the other model.

So I began to give errors of the general model.

Another problem is that the inventor will open several versions of the model, instead of opening a single version.

The program should not allow you to open multiple parts or assemblies by calling the same element.

I'll repeat it again.
