Once a wire is created in a harness assembly, you can replace the wire by changing the wire definition from one library wire to another. The wire is redrawn using the new definition. The wire occurrence property values, including the Wire ID, remain the same and the Library-level wire properties are added to the occurrence wire immediately. Any splices on the wire also remain on the new wire.
- From the browser or graphics window, select the wire to change, right-click, and then select Edit Wire.
Note: If you cannot select the pin in the graphics window, you may need to set the Select command to Select sketch elements.
- Optionally, select a wire category from the list, and then select the new wire name from the Name list. The wires listed vary depending on the selected category.
- To view the properties for the created wire, click Properties.
- To redraw the wire using the new definition, click Apply.
Color changes are updated automatically.
- If the Outer Diameter changed with the new wire definition, click Update on the the Quick Access toolbar to redraw the wire(s) using the new settings.
- Continue changing wire definitions as needed.
- Click OK.
To close the dialog box without creating a wire, press ESC or click Cancel.
