Part conditionally included in assembly by relation

Greetings

Please can I have some suggestions for a strategy to optionally include a part in an assembly based of a relation.

For example a frame needs a centre brace if it is bigger that 1000mm wide but not if it is narrower.

I guess it should be easy but my mind is blank - perhaps it is the temperature here in UK!

TIA

Thanks to Matt, Rui and Lyle

In summary: you use Tools>Program in the assembly and put an IF ... END IF based on the critical dimension to selectively include the centre brace part.

I fortunately do have AAX (Advanced Assembly Extension) which provides the functionality.

Best wishes
