NX6 Replace component

[SDenison]

I'm having a trouble with replacing a component in an assembly drawing. I'm trying to replace a sub-assembly with a higher revision of that assembly. (It should have been done when the sub-assembly was revised, but was not.)

When I do a Replace Component and put in the higher rev level, the layers get all messed up in my drawing views. It seems to be putting the components of that sub-assembly on different layers than what there were originally assigned to. Is there a simple way to fix this or will I have to go back through the sub-assembly and reassign each part to the correct layer?

Thanks,
Stephen

Expand Settings in the Replace Component menu and toogle "on" Maintain Relationships.

Do you know if the replaced component is being put in the work layer ?

Hi-
Currently there are PRs (6712001,6577485) on GTAC concerning an issue with Replace Component->Maintain Layer not working correctly .

SolutionSiemens PLM believes that the problem you reported where layer options were not maintained in higher level assemblies when replacing a component, will be resolved by code changes made to the upcoming

Two solutions we have discovered:

One way to fix it is to preload the latest released file, then open the assembly (not very practical).

A second way is to use Refresh Teamcenter Integration.
