MySession Tab in Options Dialog Box

This section describes the options that control how instances of an object appear in MySession.

With the Tree View option, you can select the way the instances of an object appear in MySession. You can choose one of the following:

Option Description
Instance View Displays every instance of an object in a separate row. This is the default option.
Reference View Groups the objects and displays the number of associated instances in the Quantity column of MySession. All the instances appear in a single row.
FeatureManager Tree View Groups or ungroups the objects based on the Group Component Instances settings done in SOLIDWORKS.
Impact of the open mode with the FeatureManager Tree View option:
  • Resolved: Displays the references and quantity in MySession.
  • Lightweight: Displays only the instances in MySession.
    • Using this option, there is a possibility that MySession displays an assembly as a combination of instance and reference views.
    • Even if you select Ungroup Components for a single or multiple nodes in SOLIDWORKS and FeatureManager Tree View option, the objects in MySession appear in the Reference View only.
