Bind Part Constraint Suppression to Part Suppression Status?

Bind Part Constraint Suppression to Part Suppression Status?

Is there a way to bind a part's constraint suppression status to the part's suppression status?

E.G. - If a part is suppressed, it's constraints are suppressed and vice versa for unsuppressed.

Currently, I observe that these are independent of each other.

 

I can see how it'd be useful to suppress specific constraints while a part is unsuppressed; however, the use case I'm running into is when adding a part to an assembly that has multiple model states (used to show different add-ons / permutations of the assembly). 

 

I'm running Inventor Professional 2025, thanks in advance!

You could do this with iLogic or VBA programming, but I don't think there is a way to do this without some sort of customization.

This is why I stopped using Model States at the assembly level. I'm using ViewReps only now-which won't affect or create duplicate constraints. And I get to show or not show items within a subassy easily.
