A partial assembly load assumes temporary representation of the selected components in a simplified loaded view or in the form of bounding boxes. You can free computer resources to speed up your work with models of large assemblies.
Partial load of components is more preferable than eliminating components from calculations as it would not result in breaking hierarchical and associative references among model objects. Moreover, components with partial load (types Simplified, Partial, Empty, and Size), unlike those excluded from the calculation, are transferred to the associative model drawing in the same way as those with the Full load type.
|
Another way to free computing resources when working with large assemblies is to use models. Unlike partial load, this method permanently, rather than temporarily, reduces the amount of data to be loaded. |
By default, several assembly load modes are created in the system (see section System Load Modes). The mode you select becomes a load mode for all components.
You can also assign different load modes to components (see section Select Component Load Type), having thus created Custom Load Mode of an Assembly.
Solids constructed in the assembly and its local parts do not have load types. They are always fully represented in the assembly.

Any change to the assembly load mode is considered as assembly editing, therefore, a prompt to save the document will appear when you close the assembly. Press the Save button to save the assembly files and all its components, or the Don't Save button if saving the documents is not required. When you press the Save button, a prompt to save a load type appears on the screen. Details... |
Icons of assembly load types and its components are displayed in the Design Tree in the left column. To enable/disable the display of this column, use the Load Mode command in the menu called by the
button in the Design Tree header.
