Orlik Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 In a subassembly I have main configuration and an alternative configuration with suppressed parts. How can I propagate that alternative configuration for higher level assembly? Is it possible to create an alternative configuration in main assembly and choice configuration for subassembly?

Mike Hatch Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 (edited) A new configuration will assume the settings of the current displayed configuration. So select your "alternative configuration" with its suppressions from the "Active configuration" drop down in the bottom right hand corner, so that it is displayed. Next create a "new" configuration from the "Configurations" drop down beside it, the new one will now be displayed and have the settings of the "alternative configuration". Now change the suppressed items in this "new" to match your needs. It has been suggested that a "Suppress Selected" and "Suppress Unselected" be added to the right click options of part and assemblies to make the Suppress options more like the Hide options, not sure if this has made it into IC2020 though.

I may have misunderstood your question, but if not the link to the following post might help. Malcolm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
