SolidWorks Cimtools Add-in Function : Select Suppressed Components

The Select Suppressed Components feature of the SolidWorks Cimtools Add-in is designed to automatically identify and select all components that are currently suppressed within one or multiple configurations of an assembly.

This feature is designed to improve efficiency and accuracy when working with complex assemblies within the SolidWorks environment.

By simply pressing the function, those first level elements of the assembly that are in a suppressed state will be selected in the SolidWorks Feature Manager.

Main Characteristics:

    • If the assembly has only one configuration, all first-level deleted components of the active assembly configuration will be selected.
    • If the assembly has more than one configuration you can have the option to select deleted components only in the active configuration or components that are deleted in all configurations, i.e. if a component deleted in the active configuration is not deleted in any other configuration of the active assembly this component will not be selected.
    • Choose the option that best suits your needs.
    • Result: The function will process the assembly and select all deleted components according to the chosen options. The selected components will be visible in the graphic area and in the design tree, allowing you to easily perform the desired action on these components.

Subsequent Actions:

Once the components have been selected, the user will be asked if he/she wants to remove the selected deleted components, if so, they will be removed from the active assembly.

Advantages:

  • Improved Efficiency: Automates the process of identifying deleted components, saving time and reducing errors.
  • Flexibility: Offers options to work with single or multiple configurations, providing flexibility according to project needs.
  • Ease of Use: Integrates a straightforward, easy-to-use solution within the SolidWorks environment for managing deleted components.
