Hi all,

How can you isolate selected component in a simplified rep using WF3?

Thanks

Nicolas

    I think that what you are doing is pretty well the same thing as I am talking about if my memory serves for WF 3.0. Selecting the top assembly and excluding it is the same thing as setting everything to a default of exclude.

    You should be able to. I can't remember exactly what it was like in WF 3.0. But the idea would be to create the Simplified Rep with the default rule of Exclude All, and then to select the Master Rep option for just the one component you are interested in viewing. With the Exclude All default any new components added to the master rep assembly should also be blanked in your isolating Simplified Rep.

    I could post some screen shots from WF 5.0, but I am not sure how similar that would be to WF 3.0.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks,

    where do you get the exclude all default?

    I've created a new simplified rep, included all component I wanted in there desired rep then excluded the top GA.

    That seems to work not as sleek as isolate but you have a record of the component shown.
