flexibility not visible when dragging components

In Creo, flexible components such as springs, mounted in an assembly, do not graphically show their flexibility when dragging. How to solve this behavior? What can I do? And without using the mechanism! In short, I would like to see the spring that stretches and compresses when I drag the purple component without having to regenerate at the end of the drag. thanks in advance to anyone who can help me

 Creo cannot flex components as you drag them.  A regeneration is required to take the measurement and update the the flexed model.

If creo was constantly regenerating to keep up with the drag, performance would be greatly impacted.
