Autodesk Inventor maintains links between components and drawings, so
you can create a drawing at any time during the creation of a component. By
default, the drawing updates automatically when you edit the component.
However, it is a good idea to wait until a component design is nearly complete
before you create a drawing. Edit the drawing details (to add or delete
dimensions or views, or to change the locations of notes and balloons) to
reflect the revisions.

Associative Behavior of Parts
Other than the origin work planes, work axes, the center point, and grounded
work points, all work features are associated to the features or geometry used
to create them. If you modify or delete the locating geometry, the work feature
changes accordingly. Conversely, changes to the work feature affect any feature
or geometry that is dependent on a work feature for its definition.
A parent-child relationship is a term frequently used to describe the
relationship between features. A child feature cannot exist without the parent
feature. If you delete a parent feature, you can choose to retain the originating
sketch of a child feature. If you create geometry on an origin plane or a work
plane created from an origin plane you can often avoid creating parent-child
relationships.
A derived part can maintain associative links to the source component so it
can be updated. You can also choose to break the link between the derived
part and the source part or assembly to disable updates.

Associative Behavior of Assemblies
An assembly maintains active links to the source components. Each time you
open an assembly, Inventor detects the latest version of the components
