Highlight Ballooned Items in Views When Cursor Hovers Over Items in Parts List
On large assembly drawings, be able to hover over an item in the Parts List and quickly associate it with every ballooned occurrence in the drawing. Highlight either the balloon or the part (or both). This would help with reviewing drawings to make sure you've ballooned every item in all applicable views. This would also help drafters quickly pick up on a drawing where someone left off.
The software does highlight any of the parts in the view as you are hovering over items in the Parts List.
you may want to have a functions that highlights the visible items in a view without a balloon. That way you'll have a clear chance to see if you missed any of them.
Best choice, in order to balloon everything in the view, is to use the "Auto Balloon" function, it works well, saves time.
I just want to explicitly voice that for me the most useful application of this idea would be able to "Select" (not just highlight) a balloon and then have that item highlighted in the parts list. Highlighting only gets you so far when you have a massive drawing with tiny balloons and a tiny parts list. Great idea! Thanks!
As an alternative, this is what I'd need done so I no longer have to use a parts list on my drawings.
This idea has been implemented within Autodesk Inventor 2024.2. Please review the Inventor 2024.2 What's New article here. For more information regarding how you may leverage the feature, and please review this page. Special thanks to everyone who cast a vote for it.
