Display States - Auto Creation?

(OP)
My colleague at work here is having a issue with display states. It seems that SW is automatically creating them as he's modeling. Have you folks experience this?

Thanks,

Seen them when making configs, is he making or does he have Configs?

Hey Scott, my co-worker mentioned that all the configs were already created. He said that they magically appeared after a few days.

Thank you sir,

RE: Display States - Auto Creation?

Well magically appeared... I think I would ask him to recreate the problem... Display states can be linked to configs, and I have seen them appear after the configs are made... usually nothing magic about it. Some times they are hard to see in the lower part of the Pane.

Not sure what to tell you, other than there is usually nothing magical, its all smoke and mirrors smile
