Model browser to synchronize with BOM (including several settings)

Model browser to synchronize with BOM (including several settings)

It would be great if there was a built-in relation between the order of the model browser (of an assembly) and the order in which the corresponding BOM items are viewed and renumbered. This enables the user to change the BOM directly and intuitively by changing the browser positions. 

 

It would create many posibilities, like being able to communicate that the BOM = preferred order of construction, BOM = preferred order of assembly, or BOM = order of items to be viewed in documents, etc. This is i.m.o. not possible with the current functionality, unless one renumbers the entire BOM manually.

 

This could be accomplished by adding an option to the 'sort' function in the BOM sub-menu named 'model browser'. There could also be a checkbox to re-execute the sort command after any browser/model/parameter change.
