Assy load speed with view configurations
Assy load speed with view configurations
(OP)
All
Hello. Have been using SE for years and we used to use view configurations to setup "empty" configurations with no parts shown to speed up load times on some of our bigger assemblies. Howwever, as of lately, we see no difference in load time based on what view configuration is chosen during the file opening process. Has this changed? Is there a setting that we have missed when updating to the newest SE release or were we just fooling ourselves and this has no bearing on how fast assemblies load?
Thanks

You don't need to create those configurations on ST5 or later - there are options you can set for how assembly files load based on haw many parts they have.
There is also an option on the Open File dialog box to open the assembly with all parts hidden - I think it has been there for several releases now.
(I'm at home at the moment so I'm working from memory here)
You can also (I found out the other day) hit the ESC key during loading and it will stop displaying/loading parts.
The pathfinder will still be there so you can then just show the parts you want.
I found that you might need to hit the key more than once just to make sure.
