Configuration Specific Properties w.r.t. Configs
Configuration Specific Properties w.r.t. Configs
(OP)
I have found that if I create a second configuration of a simple block part.(Length x width x height), the Config Specific Properties that we (Company) use- Partnum and Partdescription values, seem to lock into the first configuration's values.
Example- Config A 1x1x4" Length Config B 1x1x10" Length.
When I show the config B in a SW B.O.M. it shows the values of the 4" Length. ** This seems new to me as previous versions I am sure that you could just change your length measurement by double clicking the dimension and changing it, and the BOM would adjust accordingly. Now with 2006 I will have to go into each new config and reassign the driving dimensions from the part? Doesn't make sense to me and will be very time consuming.

RE: Configuration Specific Properties w.r.t. Configs
This is the last dimension driven value in the thickness x width x length values I pick from the part. See how it is still showing that it is pulling its value from 0750-52" Length configuration, which is a 3/4" Thick x 52" Long Piece. This annotation should read the value for the new cofiguration which is.3/4" x 64" Long.
The 52" Values were from the first config. I then added a configuration called 64" Length,then changed the length value accordingly. I should not have to then reassign(pick) the values again for each required dimension for my BOM. Help?
