Defining Planes - Warning

[MilesH]

If, when building Parts within an Assembly, you define a Plane by reference to an existing Part's surface, whenever the Part referenced is edited a regeneration of all the Parts referencing the surface is triggered. .............. That means every Regen within the referenced Part triggers multiple Part Regens.

 

[MilesH]

Any edit to a referenced Part Regenerates the Parts referencing it. Pretty obvious, in principle, but easy to forget when you only do something as simple as define a Plane.

Here's a test example.

Choosing to Edit the primary Feature in "Base" Regenerates "Test Part"
