Slave files from mold design

Unread post by Top'Noob »

Hi,

Can anybody enlighten me about slave files ?

I have tried reading through the help files and experimenting with the options and I am still confused at times...

I feel that the slave file should be a valuable tool when I wish to export a file for "pulling electrodes" or machining but it always ends up being a hassle for me...

In my latest experiment I have a ccomplete mold design in TopSolid'Mold. I wanted to make some electrodes for the core so I slaved the core and saved the mold file.

I then did some work to the core slave file (creating some electrodes).

Now when I open the mold document I get this message The document TT1777.mld is updated, because of TT1777 CORE ELECTRODES.top.

Why would the Master file be updated because of the slave :?: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

I would think that the Master document should NEVER be changed because of the SLAVE document... This scares me.
