Multi item selection between Solidworks and Upchain

Multi item selection between Solidworks and Upchain

Current functionality: When an item is selected in Solidworks tree, respective item gets highlighted (in grey) in plugin CBOM view and vice versa. This functionality is limited to single item. 

If 2 items are selected in Solidworks tree, only one item gets highlighted (in grey) in plugin CBOM view (typically items selected last in Solidworks tree gets highlighted in plugin view). 

 

Recommended functionality: If 2 items or more items are selected in Solidworks tree, all selected items should be highlighted in the plugin CBOM view as well. 

 

Use case: Solidworks does not display the item number in Solidworks tree, which user might need to know for multiple items at the same time when reviewing. As of now users can only select one item at a time and scroll in CBOM view to locate the selected model.

Hi, @andreja.schneider futhermore, it´s not possible select multi items from Project BOM to insert more than one in the Assembly, always you need select one, open and insert, or the option to dowload to the C:\home folder a massive files to take from the local folder
