You're screwed. Patterned components will NOT update with adjustable
assemblies, and will require a 'structural change' in SE before they do.
I will not quote the source here, but I have it on record from 'he who
knows' at UGS.
OBTW, Adjustable Assemblies REALLY screw with selection highlighting
in the Exploded Assembly environment too. And as for navigating the
Assembly Pathfinder to investigate WHICH components within each
Adjustable Assembly 'close the loop' at the top level - good luck. You
will need to fully expand the tree and scroll down part by part until
you find the active Relationship(s). Great if you have 1000 parts ...
Yesterday I added 3 non-graphical parts at the top level of an Ass'y
with 2 adjustable subs. Now my Parts List STARTS at the Item No.
of the first NGP and counts upwards from *37 ...
Adjustable Assemblies looked like the answer to a maiden's prayer
in the brochure, but are nearing 'cruel joke' status here at MASCO ...
Great concept, bad consequences.
