datum plane

[matfio]

Hello everyone
I don't know if everyone knows it or not and if it's a normal thing or not the other day I discovered something about the associated datum planes in assembly.
I managed to create a datum plane by associating it with a face of a component within a set without linking anything, until the other day I thought it could only be done in a non-associative way.
I also see that it remains stable.
Did you know that?

No, I didn't know.
isn't that you have the automatic wave link icon activated?

 

[matfio]

no, the procedure I do is this:
click on the command datum plane, remove the flag from associative, select the face that interests me and before giving ok I add the associative flag and then do ok. and as by magic I find my associative datum.
I don't know if I explained well to the limit

according to me you have the option of selection "create interpart link" activated.
is a small icon, located on the selection bar, with the viewfinder + the wave link symbol.

Sorry but I can't find it or at least it's darkened so it's not clikcabile
where can I look if it is active or not? on customizations?

I tried in every way to create the associative plan (datum plane in the assembly, right?) but nothing.
Boh.

I turn you a video of how I do so maybe you help me understand how it does (I also tried with the nx9 version only that you have to be careful in having active the entire assembly filter and you do not need to flag the associative)

I saw the video.
to demonstrate that it is associative you have to change the size of the block in part b and consequently you have to move the plan

. Why don't you?

I am sorry, but I was just a little frantic. I mean, once I created the plan in part a, tied to the face of part b, I think it is to be considered associative if, moving the face in part b, then moves the plan in part a .
in fact it is associated in the construction but it is as if it had the block of timestamp .
I wonder if it is possible to create the plan and tie it indissolubly to the face: changing the length of the block changes accordingly the position of the plan.
I have repeated the test and in fact behaves as in your case with the only difference that when you disable the association in the building window of the plan, the selection intent automatically switches to "entire assembly" , to me not?!?
