Show Component Configuration Descriptions

You can display component configuration descriptions in the FeatureManager design tree in part, assembly, and drawing documents and in the ConfigurationManager of parts and assemblies.

To show component configuration descriptions:

    At the top of the FeatureManager design tree, right-click the part, assembly, or drawing name, and select Tree Display, Show Component Configuration Descriptions.

    By default, component configuration descriptions are the same as the component configuration names and are not displayed. You must specify new component configuration descriptions for them to appear in the FeatureManager design tree. You change a component configuration description in the part file.
