AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGGHHHH!!!!
This software does my head in like no other I have ever used before - and I'm not just talking CAD software.
My current gripe is as follows:- I frequently have sub-assemblies used multiple times in a higher level assembly, and each sub-assy instance might be set to use a different (one or more available) config.
Should this pose a problem for SWX???? Well it does, because every day when I first open it up it has changed the configs round completely screwing up mates and design intent. Circumstantial evidence suggests it is resetting ALL sub-assys to use the same config, but this may be a coincidence.
The only "tricky" thing I'm doing here is to use the sub-assys as "flexible assemblies", so that a hinged mechanism can be made to align with other geometry.
I'm on SWX 2007 sp3.1
I haven't discussed this with my VAR, because I have never yet had a useful answer on any topic from them (the only answer I ever get is "try completely uninstalling and reinstalling the software"). However, the last time I got that answer from them, they said "don't go to sp4.0 because it has some assembly config issues". hahahahah
Anyone got any suggestions please as to how to improve this specific lamentable performance? It makes Microsoft products appear a model of reliability.
