Hi everyone, Is there any way to suppress a component in an assembly thru a YES/No parameter? If parameter is set to YES, the component is unsuppressed and if set to NO, the component is suppressed. Thanks Ankur

I don't know about parameters, but you can do it with a family table, or even a simplified rep.

Yes, I do this all the time, but I believe you need AAX to do so. For example, in my relations I have: IF FOOT_TYPE==3 FLANGED_FOOT=NO CASTER=YES ENDIF Then in the program I would have: IF CASTER==YES ADD PART CAS75CASTER INTERNAL COMPONENT ID 65 PARENTS = 43(#7) END ADD END IF
