link files: relative path possible?
Hi, when creating an assembly file, is it possible to specify path names for the part files as relative path names? That is, for example, they should be taken from the same directory as the assembly file? So that if I move my directory containing my design files, the links would remain valid, and I would not have to re-specify the links.
Thanks
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
They cannot be specified as relative. After moving the directory, when the program cannot find a file, it asks you to define a new path.
Another option is to leave the part as it was saved in the assembly. You can use it especially, if you know the part file has not been changed since the assembly was closed.
