Changing the Pointed Component Minor Version in a Relation

You can change a not opened pointed component in a relation by replacing it with another minor version of the component.

The minor version is divided into two categories, insensitive minor version and sensitive minor version:

  • Insensitive means that any minor version of the component is compliant with the relation.

    In this case, a minor version of the component is loaded and the relation is automatically reconnected.

  • Sensitive means that only the minor version of the component, used when the relation has been created is compliant.

    In this case, the compliant minor version of the component is loaded and the relation is automatically reconnected.


Before you begin: Open an assembly containing a component not opened for which another minor version is opened in session.
  1. From the Tools section of the action bar, click Links & Relations .
    The Edit Links & Relations dialog box appears.
  2. Select a relation with the not opened component in the list.
  3. Click Switch to minor in session .
    The minor version of the component is loaded and the relation is reconnected.
  4. Click OK in the Edit Links & Relations dialog box.
