I have spent a few days already playing around with this with no real progress. Here is my challenge:
I have a part file of a camera that I need to place multiple instances (20+) of into an assembly at multiple positions relative to the origin. I need to fix it based on XYZ coordinates, angle relative to ground plane and angle relative to vertical axis. Each of the 20 instances needs unique values for each of these parameters.
Long term, I need this to be automated as much as possible. To have it driven by a design table is ideal as I can use a table created by an external party to update the model without manually mating components each time.
Another thought I had was to use configuration publisher to be able to drop in each camera unit and manually input the value to mates that are already defined. But this doesn't seem possible at the part level.
Is this achievable? Any other techniques or tools I should be looking at?
