Hi all,
I seem to remember asking this before but I cannot find anything in the forum along these lines...
Is there a way to see what elements of a design are controlling a configuration?
I can imagine setting up a configuration that has some mates suppressed and others unsuppressed and different values for offset mates and some components suppressed and others resumed... Not to mention Display States...
Is there a tool to interrogate a configuration to see how it was built, or what controls it?
I know that Configuration Tables are a great way to do this - but only if they're done initially. I imagine a Design Table would provide a similar view into the configurations - but again - that would require some forethought and upfront work.
If I inherit an assembly and need to figure out how it works, I would want to see all of the elements controlling a configuration. Am I overthinking this? Are the any techniques for investigating the contributors to configurations?
Thanks,
-Nate
