Inventor Presentation tweak-storyboard

Inventor Presentation tweak-storyboard

tl;dr: Have the a storyboard representation of tweaks to allow for easier re-ordering, rather than trying to manually select and drag 10's / 100's of parts with the mouse.

 

I am currently using presentation to create a set of assembly instructions where each piece and its fasteners are shown being placed with tweaks. The current process I use is to disassemble the assembly with tweaks and visibility, then make snapshots from finish -> start to show the assembly process.

 

This is all well and good, until I'm 60/70 tweaks in with 900+ parts. Trying to navigate the storyboard becomes a scroll-wheel adventure, and if I realize that changing the order of assembly (order of tweaks) from A-B-C-D to A-C-B-D would make more sense, just selecting them (particularly if they're vertically spread across the storyboard) becomes a nightmare.

 

So if there was an option to swap between part-storyboard and tweak-storyboard that would be amazing.

 

Also, why can't we re-order the tweaks in the browser like we can re-order parts in an assembly?
