Reference and Slave Models

Sekta · 16 Oct 2013, 07:54

Hi All,

As my models get more complex with many different views I am looking to adopt Nick Sonders method of having a master model with several referenced sub models for internal elevations and joinery and ceiling plans etc.I was looking for suggestions on the best method to achieve this. I cant quite figure how to update the sub-model once the master model has been adjusted. Is the trick to create a component of the entiremodel? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I deleted my post hoping you hadn't seen it. I need to revise some of it but have to get ready for work first.
