Configurable Items for Assemblies

You can vary the design of assembly configurations as follows:
  • Change the suppression state (Suppressed, Resolved) of components.
  • Change the referenced configuration of components.
  • Change the Display State.
  • Change the dimensions of distance or angle mates, or suppression state of mates.

  • Assign mass and center of mass.
  • Suppress features that belong to the assembly.
  • Define configuration-specific properties, such as end conditions and sketch relations.
