Studio Splines and Linked Bodies does not update when switching arrangements

[HallvarN]

Hi.


I have created a cable which is based on a Studio Spline (and Tube), as a feature within an assembly.

The end points of the Studio Spline is attached to two different components, and the spline updates when I move the two components in the assembly.

So I created an arrangement, with alternative positioning for the two components that the spline is attached to. Then the spline (cable) does not update.

Then I tried using to wavelink the moving components, and snap the spline to this instead, but the linked bodies behaves the same way when switching arrangements.
This linked body problem is previously addressed in this post:

I do not have write access to the moving components, and the cable should preferably stay as a feature and not a component.

Is this supposed to work or is it going to be fixed in later versions (currently running NX 6.0.5.3 MP10)?

Thanks,
Hallvar

That is the current behavior of Arrangements.
