Generating iPart Family Members

ToddPig — Wed, 28 Apr 2021 14:49:47 GMT

I have an iPart with 111 members, it takes me 6 clicks to "Generate Files" for each member. 600+ clicks to do something that seems like it should be done with less than 10?

Is there a way to use the "Generate Files" command to generate more than 1 file?

I have to create 2 more of these iParts, it would be create if there was a way to save almost 2000 mouse clicks.

Shift select all the iparts in the browser > Right > click "Generate files", that will generate all of them.

Also, you dont have to manually generate them, when you place the factory, it will look to see if the version has been created, if not it will create on its own.
