Details
How can you measure in a subassembly so that the results use the coordinate system of the top level assembly.
Solution
One method is to in-place activate the subassembly, create a new coordinate
system using the SHIFT key to access the coordinate system of the top assembly
and the edges of its components. Then, use the 3D Measure commands, such as
'Measure' or 'Measure Distance' where you can select the coordinate system to use
for measurement.
