End of Part Marker play command or cursor interaction

[MTimmis_ADSK]

It would be great if the End of Part (EOP) Marker could have a play command, giving you the ability to play through the feature build up, from start to finish. At the moment you have to move the End of Part (EOP) Marker to the top of the Model Browser, then drag it down one feature at a time.

Another alternative, would be to enable the keyboard cursor keys to allow you to step the End of Part (EOP) Marker up and down through the feature list in the Model Browser. I have been advised that this is something that Solidworks allows you to do!

I have seen add-ins that let you step through a model history like this, and we had one of them at my previous company. It can be very helpful when trying to figure out the process someone else used to build a complex model. All the add-in was doing was moving the End of Part by one line, but it had Forward & Back buttons to do so that were much more convenient than manually dragging the EOP down one row at a time. Have always thought it should have been a built-in feature.

Hello again @jtylerbc, I to have used third party addins with this functionality. It is about time the put this into the standard product. As you say, it is really useful to have the ability to play through the build up of a part, especially if someone else created it.

Creo has had this feature for decades....
