PARTshell Check Out (3D)
Applications 
PARTsolutions (File/Object/Part
Level)
Use this command to open the PARTsolutions PARTviewer application and "check out" a component that was previously "checked in" using the PARTshell Check In command. This command is not used to insert PARTsolutions components. Use the PARTviewer command to insert PARTsolutions components.
When a component is "checked-out" of PARTsolutions and inserted into VX, the active part is first regenerated so that the new component is updated with the variable table selected in PARTsolutions. Refer to the PARTsolutions documentation about using the PARTviewer application. A valid license of PARTsolutions is required to operate this command.
In VX, open the part where you want the component to be "checked-in" to.
At the Part Level, pick PARTshell Check Out from the PARTsolutions Menu.
Select the native part and load it into PARTviewer.
Select the part you want to insert from the table.
The 3D preview of the part in PARTviewer represents the original part exported from VX. At this time, the preview will not dynamically update as new selections are made from the table.
In PARTviewer, pick the
Export to CAD System icon 
.
PARTviewer will either collapse or exit depending on which icon is selected.
In VX, select the insertion point for the new component.
Plane
Use a datum plane or face to locate the component instance.
