Linked Body not updated

Hello, 

I have catpart #1 that represents a casted version of a component.  We then have a catpart #2 that is the machined version of the casting.

 

catpart #1 is pasted "as result with link" in a body in catpart #2.  catpart #2 shows the link is good, it opens the correct pointed geometry.  It is NOT changing the model to show the casting changes.  There are no errors or broken links.  

 

I am sure it is something simple, racking my brain trying to to the CATPART 2 to show the changes made in CATPART 1

 

Thank you

Michael Laursen

I would need to two parts to see for my self.. 
But the way we do is to create a masterpart with both a raw casted part and another "variant" with machining... We just deactivate the machining from one part to another..

Hello James,

 

Do you have catpart #1 opened when you open catpart #2, in the same CATIA session? And does catpart #2 turns red and have the black/yellow swirl ball to update on the Specification tree?
