As someone who has used a lot of different software over the years, I have not read the manual thoroughly yet. I do plan to peruse that though.

We're I'm glad I started this thread! That's a good page and I never would have found it in the help. Thanks for the share!

I feel like these are learned slowly, over time, and painfully. Any specific ones I should watch for? Also, does Alibre not look for parts in assemblies with relative paths? Or are the paths hardcoded full absolute paths?
