     nitin, it can be done with all dimensions in place but you would have to re-assosiate the existing dimensions, if you like I can explain step by step.

  You save the dwg.prt file as seprate name for eg. if the prt file named as abc and you named the dwg.prt file as ab-c like that also you separate the file

  Hi Nitin,

  To do this you need to work according to the master model method. What you do is you create the ABC.prt file you save it and then you create a new file, this new file will be dwg.prt.

  1. Step 1

     Create a new file

     

  2. Step 2

     Make your 3D model and when finished save the model. Do not close this model. You will need it to create the dwg.prt file

     

  3. Step 3

     Again create a new file only this time choose Drawings. Choose the paper format that you want. Because your 3D model is still open you will see that the name automatically apears in the name box "ABC_dwg1.prt". In the pictures it's "ABC_dwg2.prt" this is because I was creating a second dwg.prt file. The first one is always dwg1.prt.

     

  4. Step 4

     Insert you 3D model in to your drawing. Now your dwg.prt file is linked with the .prt file. When you modified the .prt file the dwg.prt will automatically synchronise with the .prt file.

  let me explain step by step
  1) i made ABC.PRT model
  2) In that model i have made drafting
  so if i do as per your instruction then again i want to make drafting for that master model
  so i dont want to re draft all drawing i want the drawing that is already made in original ABC.prt file,so how i can seperate this drawing to master modeling

     Ok so you have made a model with the drafting right behind it. And now you want to separate those 2 files. I don't think it is possible to do this. I will look into it and if I find something I'll let you know.

     I've tried a few things and asked around. It cannot be done because you will lose all dimensions associations. It's the same as starting all over again. My advies to you is, start using the master model method. I still going to look around and I if I find something I'll let you know.

  Try this..
  1.Since you have your drafting already on your ABC.prt, rename it to ABC.DWGFMT.prt. and delete all the modelings youve done. The drawing will still be there but are outdated.
  2. Now open the ABC.prt file you previously created and delete the drawings on it
  3. So you have two files now.(ABC.prt & ABC.DWGFMT.prt). All you have to do is make an assembly with ABC.DWGFMT.prt as the main and ABC.prt as the component.
  6. After you create the assembly you just need to update the outdated drawings and thats it.
  Hope it helps.
