Display Extended Information for Work Features and Sketches

Display Extended Information for Work Features and Sketches

Hi all,

 

Based in part on this post but in actuality speaking to the wider trend that seems to be to hide information away unless you know how to find it(!):

 

Can the dev team please allow the "Display Extended Information" Application Options button:

 

2017-02-13 14_59_03-Autodesk Inventor Professional 2017 - [Part1].png

 

to apply (for example):

 

  • Defining/referenced Work Plane(s)/Features with Sketches
  • Dimensions/referenced Feature(s)/Sketch names for Work Features

I guess part of the reason this hasn't been added already is the apparent complexity introduced if (for instance) you were to allow Projected geometry to dictate/update this information.

 

I realise the Relationships tool** was added recently, (which is a great tool) - it would just be nice if the information was readily available all the time.*

 

Thanks,

 

Alex.

 

*And if for whatever reason it can't be added after Sketch & Work Feature nodes, perhaps it can have its own panel?

 

**Perhaps the relationships tool could be promoted to have its own panel instead?
