Open from BOM

Just found a nugget in SW2007 SP1. You can click in a drawing BOM and then RMB and tell it to open the part associated with that line item. Cool!

Yep, found that one a while ago. Very nice undocumented feature.

Here's another little one that is nice.

Open a drawing, goto Tools > Options > Document Properties and look in the Auto insert on view creation box. You'll notice there's a center marks-holes and center makrs-fillets. Leave fillets off and only mark the holes. Makes this feature useful now especially if you have plastic or cast parts.

I saw that and was tempted to turn it on, but I don't always put centermarks in so decided to leave it off. Good change though.
