Pos Reps Wish

The check box for override is redundant with the pull-down. Example: To suppress a constraint, you have to check the override box, and us the pull down to suppress the constraint. There are only 2 possible choices, so why the redundancy? Just click a box to suppress or not suppress. The same thing happens for the component placement override, too.

Think about this. If I want to override a constraint I'd have to choose
suppress or unsuppressed each time. If I was only changing the values it
would be an extra choice.

I think it works correctly. I choose to override it then I set it's state.
Otherwise I'd have to set the state each time.

I know it looks redundant, but not if you ever change the master constraint.

For example (the way you sugest) in pos rep 1 you suppress mate1 by just hitting an override box. Later you suppress mate1 in the master. The override box would then enable mate1 in pos rep 1.

That's not what I would like to happen. The box and pull down menu combo basically say, "I don't care what the master says make this constraint --whatever--"
