Feature Tree
Feature Tree
(OP)
Any kind of help is much appreciated.
As I insert a component into an assembly, the name of the added part in Feature Tree changes to
(-)Part name <1>(Default<<Default>_Display State1>)
Part Name is the file name of component.
What does (-) and <1>(Default<<Default>_Display State1>)means?
and is there anyway to stop them from being added?
the Feature tree seems to be so crowded and it's hard to find a specific part.
I'm using SolidWorks 2010 on windows 7.
thank you

The actual part name doesn't change. It's only the feature tree that shows them this way.
Here's a screen shot:

For example the first part name is "1-Left"
but as you see it's been changed to 1-Left<1>(Default <<Default>_Display State1>)
Moreover the context menu(Right click menue) of Feature Tree doesn't contain Rename (I'm able to rename the features under each part, but not the part name itself)
Any kind of further advice is much appreciated.

The <1> represents the first instance of the item within the assembly. The second will have <2>, so on and so forth.

I would strongly recommend you go through the built in tutorials (Help->SolidWorks Tutorials). They will help answer many of your questions.
