Notes:When Opening an assembly, users can start in Lightweight or Resolved Modes. •Lightweight loads geometry without any parameter information. Otherwise, it's just a graphical display of the part(s). In order to use this mode, 3DCS users will need to right-click on the assembly and set it to Resolved. •Resolved loads all of the geometry, parameters and links, etc. This is the best load option when using 3DCS. |
