Part III: Working with Assemblies
You will need to do more to finish this tooling die than is covered in this tutorial. The point is
to give you some experience using the in-context features that are used with a layout sketch
technique.Summary
Although in-context functions are powerful and seductive, you should use them sparingly. In
particular, be careful about file management issues such as renaming parts and assemblies. The
best approach is to use SolidWorks Explorer or the Save As command with both the parts and
assemblies open.In-context techniques, including the Layout feature, are the pinnacle of true parametric practice
and enable you to take the concepts of design intent and design for change to an entirely new level.
