Totally need some help here:
Imiagine your in an assembly file, with one grounded .ipt and one iam....
 
The .iam has a dynamic part within it (free moving, non-constrained)
I want to constrain said dynamic part using a different part from within an active assembly file.
 
But when i click to edit the iam (and constrain the part), inventor freezes all other parts so i cant reference/chage/edit them. It is supposed to.
 
How can i get around this, and constrain a part in an assembly using another part from within the same acitve assembly?
And would it remain adaptive?
 
Oh yeah i'm running inventor 2010tulip3D2009-08-06 20:20:43
