Make edits possible in positional representation.

Make edits possible in positional representation.

Please please please make it possible to add / delete parts and sub-asseblies in a positional representation.

 

For a user it makes zero sense that this is not the case. Software wize i can understand that there are enough exuses to dump this problem on users but "come on man" this is horrible.

 

When i select a part and press "delete" inventor simply plays deff. 

 

While your at it, please make it possible to add a joint or constrain while i am in a positional representation.

Exactly. What I have to do is switch to main positional representation, insert or delete the component and then switch back. This sequence can be easily done internally, without bothering the user with making these steps. It’s just laziness of developers. Simply:

Step 1 – user tries to insert or delete component in positional representation

Step 2 – Inventor internally switches to main positional representation

Step 3 – component is inserted or deleted

Step 4 -Inventor switches internally back to original representation

Exactly, when I find stuff like this in Inventor I suspect there is no good internal critical testing done while they implement stuff like this. There is no way the developers use Inventor themselves.
