When working with Vaulted files, you should be able to view the Vault Browser (sidebar) separately from the Model Browser.
I would like to always have the Vault Browser open, even when working with the model trees. As it is right now, you have to switch your browser between Vault and Model.
How about allowing more than 1 browser to be displayed at any one time. I'd like to see my main feature browser, Vault browser and the new Part folder browser (see 'Browser Folders in Part Environment' idea) at the same time, all docked to different parts of the screen (or different monitors (see 'Support for Multiple Monitors' idea))
I can see the main browser & ilogic browsers together, why not ALL browser variants for a particular environment
Main browser (IPT Featue, IAM Components, IDW Views)
Instead of a drop down to swap the model browser between model, favourites, vault, cam etc ... could we have this tab based? This will help make the options for the browser more obvious.
If the developers wanted some ideas, just take a look at the Revit browser - or Vred's browser... The technology is already there.
In Revit for example, there are multiple "browsers", but they are independent windows that be put together in many ways:
They can float or dock (great if you have multiple screens - you can spread everything out).
They can be stacked on top of eachother in a single panel (like Inventor's model and iLogic browsers)
They can be placed on top of eachother so they appear full-height, but the other browsers appear as tabs at the bottom of the window.
All variations can dock or float - so you really have the best of all worlds. (I've seen instances of the Revit browser is run on a second screen in portrait mode allowing much more of the data to be visible without scrolling. Great idea!)
Combining more Vault data into the standard Inventor browser has been called for ever since I can remember. As a Vault user, I know the trees are not identical and adding Vault status indicators to the model browser could cause performance problems, but doing something similar to the above would answer most of the ideas here on the Idea Station.
One problem with this Idea Station is that the same idea gets posted many times using different wording - and consequently, the relavence of the request gets diluted. I've found all the following posts related to this issue - any chance they can be merged and all the kudos points added together?
Just an FYI. There is a free app in the app store that will allow this. Its called MyVaultBrowser. It is just like the vault browser you are familiar with, but its dockable.

This idea has been implemented within Autodesk Inventor 2018. Special thanks to everyone who cast a vote for it. With the modernized browser panels introduced in Autodesk Inventor 2018, you can now place a Vault add-in browser panel directly beside or atop your model browser panel.
