Assembly configurations
Assembly configurations
(OP)
I've got an assembly that has a part that telescopes in and out and I want to show a it in both states, fully extended and compressed. What's would be the best way to do this?
I'm thinking by using a configuration in the assembly but I'm not really sure how to make it happen the way I want it to. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

1. Default - Uses your Limit Distance mate & is your flexible or working configuration
2. Installed Min - for drawing use
3. Installed Max - for drawing use
you can couple these configurations together in the same view on your drawing using 'Alternate Position View' feature.
