I need some help with being able to setup & edit a Subordinate UDF.
The aim:
1. Create a part containing a master sketch / extrusion profile.
2. Reference the master sketch / profile using a subordinate UDF.
3. Use the UDF in other parts.
4. Update the original master sketch / UDF and have all other parts update automatically.
I am really struggling to get this to work.
Currently I am creating a new part (Part A), with a 2D sketch of an extrusion profile. I then create a Subordinate UDF, selecting the sketch as the feature and a coordinate system / number of planes as my ref points.
I then create a new part (Part B) and import the UDF into the part. I select "Make features dependent on dimensions of UDF" and place the UDF into the new part.
I now go back to the original Part A (with part B still open) and adjust the extrusion profile (changing a few dimensions).
I go back to Part B, regenerate and nothing happens? The UDF in Part B does not update and reflect the change made to the master sketch profile in Part B?
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? Your help would be very much appreciated!
