What settings determine if NX loads component parts fully or partially?

The assembly load options specifically define how component parts are loaded when you open an assembly in Siemens NX. These settings allow users to choose between loading all components fully or only some parts partially. This is particularly useful for managing large assemblies, as it can significantly improve performance and reduce the time it takes to load the assembly, especially when working with complex designs with many parts.

By configuring the assembly load options, users can decide to load only the necessary components that they need to work on, which helps streamline the workflow and conserve computational resources. These options provide flexibility depending on the user's tasks, allowing for more efficient handling of large-scale projects.

Other options, such as system options, selection options, and modeling options, deal with broader settings and preferences that do not directly influence how components of an assembly are managed during the loading process. Therefore, assembly load options are the key to controlling the loading behavior of parts within assemblies.
