Anybody want to see a dialogue that would allow you to supress and unsupress mates in one foul swoop. I am modifying a slooooowwww assembly and when editing different configs I need to Supress and unsupress a set of mates. This wouldn't be too much of a problem but SW wants to rebuild after each change. I want to just change their states in one move and rebuild once. Would this be helpfull for anyone else.

Personally, I'd prefer to prevent rebuilds in general until I want the rebuild. That would make a more general enhancement that I think would solve your problem too.
Dynabits' RedLight did this pretty well, but Dynabits is gone now. Tragic. I'm still occasionsally using RedLight to prevent rebuilds, and I have no trouble with it.
Actually I had forgotten that I had written a simple macro to prevent rebuilds. I am now using it for this issue.

If anyone needs it I would be glad to share.
Hello Corey,
I think I'd like it. Does it work okay on 2004 and 2005, to your knowledge?
Sincerely, Jerry Forcier

Corey,
I would like that macro if possible.
Thanks Peter
I'd love that dialogue. does it give lists of mates for ea. config and the option to turn on/off? We all work on big models, slow to rebuild with lots of configs and rubbish PC's. :-)
Let me at it!!!!

Oh it hasn't been created but you could submit an enhancement request. If I find time I will add it to my Create these apps list.

I don't think there would be any problems with 2005 I haven't read what has changed but the code that is used has been around forever.
