To create an assembly reference

  1. Do one of the following:
    • Select Create > Scene Assembly > Create Assembly Reference.
    • -click an empty space in the Outliner and select Scene Assembly > Create assembly reference from the menu that appears.
  2. In the Set Definition File window that appears, select the assembly definition file you want to reference.
  3. In the Namespace Options, set the options you want and click Open.

    For example:

    • To use namespaces, ensure Use namespaces is on.

      By default, the representation namespace uses the assembly definition file name.

    • To specify a text string for the namespace, select String and type the namespace in the field that appears.

    In the Outliner, an assemblyReference nodes appears, represented by an icon. By default, the new assembly reference inherits the name of the referenced assemblyDefinition node.

TipWhile working with representations in the scene view, you can quickly access the assemblyReference node and the Scene Assembly menu using the following methods:

  • Turn on Asset centric selection in the Preferences window. See Selection preferences.

    Selecting the representation selects its assemblyReference node.

  • -click the representation and select Select Assembly from the menu that appears.

    The representation's assemblyReference node is selected.

You can now access the Scene Assembly menu by -clicking the representation and selecting it from the menu that appears.
