Attach a Drawing to a Model

Use this function to connect a new drawing of the same model to a model in the working window. You can add the archived drawing as a model drawing. Select a drawing from the archive.

  1. Expand Drawings in the tree.

    This will enable you to see the previous drawings, one under the other.

  2. Move the cursor over Drawings.
  3. Select the context-sensitive function Attach Archived Drawings.
  4. Define the search criteria for the drawing, and click OK.
  5. Select the archived drawing from the search result.

  6. Select the context-sensitive function Open.

    Your selected drawing will be displayed in the tree under the title Drawings.

Note:
  • Do not attach another model's drawing to the model, as this will update the drawing projections from a different model than the one in the working window.
  • You can connect the latest version of the drawing saved in the Flow system to an archived assembly model. If the Flow drawing is connected to an assembly model, the same drawing cannot be connected to another model. Both model and drawing is engineered by Vertex G4 software.
