Hi everyone
I've been doing a lot of multibody part modeling lately and I'm looking for a way to have the list of Solid and Surface bodies at the top of the feature tree to always be in the same spot without needing to scroll to the top of the tree. In my worfklows I'm often selecting a body for feature context and I find myself spending a lot of time scrolling to the top of the featuremanager to get back to the list of bodies. I also go there to hide / show / change transparency of bodies quite often, though I do try to manage that with display states (which I can show in a toolbar dropdown).
I've tried splitting the featuremanager tree into two using the split bar, but both top and bottom trees want to scroll to whatever feature I've selected. I've tried turning off the "Scroll selected item into view" setting in Options, but I find that function useful as well, so it would be ideal if I could only apply it to just one of the 2 featuremanager trees (i.e. one stays put and the other scrolls to what I've selected).
So, does anyone know of a way to make the list of Solid or Surface bodies in a persistent location on the screen? Or a quick trick to get the list(s) of bodies to pop up?
Thanks in advance!
