- [Instructor] So now I have my components brought in,
moved into position, and then constrained
to where exactly they need to be,
so I can take a quick little once-around of my assembly
and you can see maybe things don't fit
as well as they should, and I wanna make some modifications.
So, I can do some contextual edits of the components.
So, for example, if I double-click on this stem.
Once I double-click on it, it does something very important.
It's called make work part.
So, right now, you can see the assembly under intensifies,
the stem is now the work part,
and I can begin making changes to this.
So if I right-mouse-click on the stem,
I go Replace Reference Set, and I say Entire Part,
you can now see all of the sketches
that went into making this.
I can double-click on a sketch, and at this point,
I can make the change that I need to make.
So, I have a value here right now.
It's a p15, it's six, and I can increase this,
increase that height, a little bit taller, 12, there we go.
Hit Close, and I'm just gonna Finish out of that sketch,
and you can see, within the context of that assembly,
it, again, made that change.
If I want to, maybe I don't want to do it
in the context of the assembly,
maybe I want to do it in its own separate part file.
So, what I can do at this point is, first,
maybe I want to get the dimension that I wanna get,
so I'm just gonna go into Analysis
for my Measure Distance, and I'm gonna go in,
measure the diameter, pick that edge.
We know that edge is now 10 as a diameter,
so it's a radius of five, and close that out.
So, I'll right-mouse-click over the valve stem
and say Open in Window,
and you'll see I have a little tab up here, right?
This is now a new window with that component in it,
so I can make those changes here.
Just come in and double-click
on the sketch that's controlling that.
Now you'll see it's not showing all of the curves.
That's fine, it's just remember the sketch was hidden,
so I just wanna show it.
Now, it's important, once again,
when I did this at the assembly level,
the assembly level has the reference set
that's controlling the visibility of these elements,
so when I say entire part,
the assembly level shows the entire part,
all of that stuff here because I had it hidden.
When I went into it, it stayed hidden.
So, that's just a setting,
something you need to be made aware of,
that sometimes when you go into the part,
how you view it is gonna be a little different
than how you would view it at the assembly level.
So now I can come in here, double-click on that
and increase this to the value that I need.
It was a 10 diameter, so a five radius.
Close that and go Finish,
part updates, so I wanna see the assembly,
one of two ways.
Here, it's pretty straightforward.
I only have the one other component open.
I can just simply click on the tab.
Another way that I can do that is if I use Control + Tab
on the keyboard, holding the Control key and go to Tab,
you can see any window that I have open,
it's gonna display it.
That's another good way you can do that.
Another way you can switch parts as well
is under the Assembly Navigator.
If I go that component right here
and right-mouse-click, open in parent window,
and I can switch in this fashion as well,
so there's several ways that you can switch between windows.
You also have a little Window button up here.
You can go down the list of components that you have open
and get the little display as well.
So now that I've made the change,
you can see everything is fitting.
It's at the right size.
I got everything just the way that I need.
I can come back up to my assembly.
I can double-click on that, and as you can see,
the assembly is now my work part.
With that, I'm gonna go back down to this arm
and I'm gonna right-mouse-click on this arm,
go to Replace Reference Set,
and I'm just gonna say Entire Part,
just to show you that this arm
also has its own separate components.
And again, if I were to right-mouse-click on this
and say Open in Window,
you'll see I don't see those separate components,
the geometry that went into making it,
again, because those elements are hidden
within the context of the part,
and with that entire part reference set,
switching between parts, visualization,
again, you have to make sure that here,
I have to turn on, right-mouse-click
on whatever it is you want, say Show,
I have to turn on, in the part, that data,
whereas if I go into the assembly, that data is controlled,
once again, by the reference set.
So now, in the arm, if I go over here,
Replace Reference Set, go to MODEL,
you'll see that is turned off.
And again, I can do the same thing
with the Valve_Stem, right?
I can come in here, Replace Reference Set,
go back to MODEL, and all is hidden,
even though those things are now still seen
in the individual part at the assembly level
because that reference set filter
basically turns that extra data off.
