Description
-
Flexible assemblies provide the ability for a parent assembly to override the positioning information of one of its children assembly’s components.
-
This means that in the case of dynamic visualization, the location of the component is loaded from the parent assembly's representation. This overrides the position present in the lower child assembly.
-
Flexible assemblies are visible in their alternate location in dynamic CAD or Part structures as dictated by their parent assemblies when opening the dynamic CAD or Part structure in Creo View and its user preference is set to Yes.

- When a dynamic structure with flexible features and assembly features is used, the geometry from the parent assembly is used for the assembly features, and the transforms (locations) from the parent assembly are used for the flexible features.
