Open an item related to another item

There may be times when you're not sure how to locate an item, but know about a related item.

For instance, you may need to locate a part that's used on a known assembly. Or, you may want to view all parent assemblies that use a specific part.

If the Item Explorer is not displayed, select the Item Explorer menu item from the Window menu.

1. Using the Item Explorer, locate and open the item that you know about.

2. Click on the item's appropriate BOM, Sources, References, Appears On, or Affected tab, and select the item you want from the list.

3. Select the Open Item command from the item's context menu. In many cases, you can also double-click the item to open it, or drag it onto an empty area of the workspace.
