I know its not a HUGE deal, but I noticed something:
I haven't checked the other applications, but in assemblies, I suspect that I have found a bug/problem....call it what you will.
First off, I am using SW 2015 SP5.
In assemblies, you can apply standard mates using the context toolbar:
AND you can float the Property Manager window to a convenient location.
So, here is the issue:
I floated the property manager window to a spot on my second monitor. Then I hit the little Pushpin to lock it open.
Then, I CTRL selected 2 components in my assembly (Specifically: 1 cylindrical face from one component and 1 cylindrical face from another component) and the Mate Context toolbar did not show up.
I was wondering why, when I Deselected the pushpin on my Property manager window and then tried again.
This time the Mate Context window shows up when I select two components.
The context menu does not show up at all in assemblies when the Property Manager window pushpin is pushed in.
I can repeat the behavior over and over. Is this the same in SW 2016 and beyond?
