Learn how convert and create smart references from one or multiple selected nodes and how to reimport files.
If trying to reload or replace a file and it appears greyed out, this indicates the file cannot be used. Most likely, it is the wrong file format.
References Video Captions: Convert and create smart references from one or multiple selected nodes. All smart references and source files can be tracked under Scene > Reference Editor. Once you save the file, VRED asks where to store the newly created smart references. You access them through the defined folder. When working on a single smart references within VRED, when you save the file, the Reference Editor of the main assembly will recognize that a file is out of date. You can reimport the files, if needed. Also, changes to the source file, like here in this Inventor files, will be recognized, and you can update or reimport it within your VRED file. With the new Reference Editor, we are enabling better teamwork and simplifying the collaborative workflow massively.
