       | 
   
   
     | Defines the assembly update activating options, which affects Assembly 
     constraints, Assembly features, Weld features, contextual design: | 
   
   
     
     
       - Automatic: updates the assembly automatically after each 
       interaction.
 
       For performance reasons, no update is launched at document opening, even 
       if the Automatic option is selected. 
       - Manual: lets you decide when you need to update your 
       assembly.

       | 
   
   
     | Defines the assembly update propagation options, which affects Assembly 
     constraints, Assembly features, Weld features: | 
   
   
     
     
       - Active level: updates the child components of the active 
       components only.
 
       - All the levels: updates all the components recursively 
       from the active components.
 
      
      | 
   
   
     
       
     By default, the All the levels option is selected. |

     Compute exact update status at open
      | 
   
   
       | 
   
   
     | Defines the update status when you are opening an assembly document or 
     inserting an assembly component. | 
   
   
     
     
       
         
           | 
         This option is only taken into account when you work with the 
         Work with the cache system option selected, which is located in 
         the Infrastructure -> Product Structure ->Cache Management -> 
         Cache Activation frame. |

      | 
   
   
     
     
       - Automatic: loads the minimal data needed in assembly 
       components to determine the update status of the assembly: updated or 
       not.
 
       - Manual: displays the Unknown Status Update icon 
       when the minimal data needed are not loaded to determine the update 
       status of the assembly.

     Access to geometry
      | 
   
   
       | 
   
   
     | Ensures that the application will automatically launch the Design 
     mode when using the following commands: constraints creation, reuse 
     pattern and define multi-instantiation. |

     Automatic switch to Design mode
      | 
   
   
     | Defines whether the automatic switch is allowed. | 
   
   
     
       
     By default, this option is selected. |

     Move components involved in a Fix Together
      | 
   
   
       | 
   
   
     | Defines the move behavior for the components involved in a Fix Together 
     in the Assembly Design workbench only. | 
   
   
     
     Extend selection to all involved components?
      | 
   
   
     | Defines the move selection extending: | 
   
   
     
     
       - Always: ensures to move all the components involved in a 
       Fix Together without warning.
 
       - Never: ensures to move only the selected component 
       involved in a Fix Together without warning.
 
       - Ask each time: ensures to display of a warning message 
       that appears when moving components.
 
       The warning message will appear whenever you will apply the following 
       commands to components fixed together: compass, Snap,
       Translation or Rotation, or Manipulate without 
       respect to constraints (With respect to constraints option 
       unselected).
