Re: assembly in assembly

In your assembly 2 right click on "assembly 1" and check flexible, you can also achieve this from the parts tree.

Be careful doing this with too many parts as it is a resource hog.

Re: assembly in assembly

Ya there is

1. Save the assembly
2. Open a new assembly
3. Place the old assembly in the new one
4. Find the mirror tool, it should be on the default icon list at the top of your screen under the assemble tab
