                        <p class="para_note_body">In some component sets (such as HASCO guide-pins and bushings), three components are identical while one component is different (HASCO uses a smaller diameter bin/bushing set in one corner to prevent incorrect mold assembly). Generally, this situation is handled by carrying the parameters of the dissimilar component in the primary component (the one having multiple instances). The expressions are then linked to keep the different components synchronized. Since the dimensions of both types of components within the set are managed by a single database, you must select the primary (instanced) component of the set rather than the odd (unique) component of the set to access the database for editing. Therefore, to edit a mixed set of guide pins, select one of the three instanced pins instead of the offset pin to edit them.</p>
