Organize Part Assemblies and Parts

Organize part assemblies, parts, and components in your model.

Entity organization rules are as follows:
  • The Model is the root of the hierarchy in the browser. It represents the contents of the HyperMesh file and can contain part assemblies, parts, and components.
  • A part assembly can contain part assemblies and parts.
  • A part can contain components, connectors, attachments, and constraints. Other entities saved into part representations are referenced.
    • Reorganize part assemblies, parts, and components either directly in the Part Browser or using the Organize tool.
  • Reorganize using the Part Browser.
    1. From the Part Browser, left-click on an entity and drag and drop it to a new location.
