Highlight slave connections

Highlight slave connections

Dear Dev Team,

 

It could be very interesting to have a function that, selecting one connection, it highlight all the slaves one. This feature will help a lot the companies in which there are different people that work over the same model, or the people that open the model after a lot of time....

 

Thank you

At the moment you can isolate "masters" and "slaves" as a whole. But a function that will highlight the slaves related to a single master connection, or viceversa, would be extremely useful. I find that the connection group feature is under used due to the difficulties in managing in a large model...

Hi,

 

You can give a joint a name on the Properties page of the Joint Properties dialog. Then all slave joints have the same name so you can search for that to find related joints.

 

Also, you don't need to know which is the master. If you try to edit a slave simply tick the box "Upgrade to Master" on the Properties page and this joint becomes the master and the old master becomes a slave.

HTH.

Hey Aleck,

That's a good tip, thanks! I still think a tool that would identify all connections linked to a group would be very useful (and a lot quicker)...

Hi @AleckGiles,

 

I foud you advice very powerful, with the queries on connection names it can be highlighted all the connections that belong to a group, even with different colors. This way you can even take the count of the different connections present in a drawing.

 

Great advise, thank you.

you could also create 2 queries: one for master with the name and then a second one the whole group, by adding two different colors for the query, the result looks like this:
Master-green, slave-redMaster-green, slave-red
