Feature group suppression

Feature group suppression

Feature group suppression

(OP)
I am using NX8.5 and would like to suppress a Feature Group by an expression.
When I RMC the group, I can suppress it, but that is all, no option for "Suppress by Expression"
I have been reading the forum and it seems like this is possible, but I find nothing on "HOW TO"
Can you point me in the right direction.
Thanks.

RE: Feature group suppression

The workflow for setting-up a 'Suppress by Expression' for a 'feature' is...

Edit -> Feature -> Suppress by Expression...

...where you will see a list of all available features including the 'Feature Group'. Note that this same dialog is also used to remove a 'Suppress by Expression' setting by changing the 'Expression Option' and reselecting the features that have been given a suppression setting.

DOH
I didn't think it would be that much different than suppression in an assembly.
Thanks John, that is just what I was looking for.
