relationships and contextual conflicts, when?

[flaminio]

Hi, I haven't been able to figure out how sw handles the external references in context, when you allow them and when not.
I have a set and inside a part a and a b. I would like to create a reference from an element in a sketch of to any point of b.
Sometimes he's making me do it. Some other people tell me:

"Impossible to use the selection. if you grant this selection you would create a contextual conflict, as mentioned above"

It can also happen that it is nested in a subaxieme, and you have the same double behavior.
What leads to this kind of response from the program? that I must look to solve the conflict?

Thank you.

If that's how it says it is because that part already has external references within other assemblies. you can allow multiple contexts of references by enabling the appropriate option but I disagree with you, as it is very easy to generate confusion and very difficult to get out of any problems.
Therefore, by default, a part may have external references that are right to exist within a single set and only when the latter is opened references are resolved (no question mark on features).

in the specific case you should remove the firearms already present to reassign them in the new subassieme.

Ah, thank you, now it's clearer.
In practice it is the most "highest able" open axieme to preserve the created relationships, when they were created.
then, other relations, always on the same side, must always be established when it is this together with being opened, as more external together.
Do I understand?

If you have a set to and in the context of this set models a part creating external references this part will really be resolved when the axieme is open.
when you create external references you see at the end of the features a symbol -> and when there are unresolved references (because jumped or because the aid is closed) the symbol is ->?

by returning to our example if you try to insert the same part into a b set and assign other external references, you get the message you mentioned earlier.
If you want to define the part in multiple contexts you must enable the appropriate option that allows you to operate.
as I told you it is very difficult to track what you do and to be able to repair any problems/errors with multiple contexts.

if I do not go wrong that message displays it (even) when you try to create an external reference while you have activated the key that prevents this action (the symbol is that of editing together with the chain crucified red).
Happy holidays to all! !

thank you 13 years later for making me understand how cocky external references work
