Hi,
Recently my office upgraded from UG NX8.5 to UG NX11.
in 8.5, assembly navigator, when sorting, component groups also were sorted.
In 11, component groups are not sorting out. In my assembly i have more than 100 component groups are there. very dificult to find out in list when i want to show/hide.
Can any one pls help to solve this problem.
Thanks

============================

This problem was fixed with PR7733959 up to NX10.0.3 MP8 but is not fixed in NX11

Problem Description:
No longer possible to sort component groups in assembly navigator. Customer makes extensive use of component groups within their assemblies. In NX8.5 and earlier it was possible to sort the component groups by name so they appeared in alphabetical order (rather than creation order). This was achieved by clicking on the header for first column in the assembly navigator. This made finding the required component group from a long list a lot easier and faster. In NX10 the list of component groups remains static even when the sort order in the ANT is changed. This makes finding the required component group a lot slower, and newly created groups appear at the bottom rather than in the logical alphanumerical order.

=============================================================================
NX Versions: NX 10.0.3 MP5, NX11.0.1 MP3

Managed Mode: No

Tc Versions: n/a

Containing:
-----------
Part: assy1.prt
AVI: nx85.avi, nx10.avi
Syslog: n/a
Other Files: n/a
Work Around: n/a

Steps to Duplicate:
See nx85.avi and nx10.avi for steps to duplicate and for clarification of differences between versions.

- Open assy1.prt
- If necessary turn on display of component groups in the assembly navigator
- Notice there are a number of component groups currently listed in the order they were created
- Click on the column header for the first column in the ANT to apply the sort order
- In NX8.5 notice the component groups are now in alphanumeric order
- In NX10.0 the component group order does not change
- In NX10.0 change the navigator order (right click on assembly) to Alphabetic or Alphanumeric.
- Still the component groups remain static
- Create a new component group
- In NX8.5 and NX10 notice the new component group is added to the bottom of the list
- In NX8.5 the order can be resorted by clicking on the column header so the new group appears in the logical place alphanumerically
- In NX10 this is not possible and the new group remains at the bottom of the list.
