In the feature manager...

In the feature manager:
When I right click a part or assembly in an assembly should there not be
a 'set to lightweight' not just 'set to resolved'? I have tried the drop
down arrow and the customize button on this drop down to. Or was it a
dream of mine that one day I did this?

If it is possible what options setting am I missing?

If it is already suppressed or lightweight, it will say "set to
resolved", and not "set to lightweight".

If it is resolved, it will say "set to lightweight", but I don't believe
there is a situation where both can be in the menu at the same time.

 

Weird I don't have (when a part is set to resolved) "set resolved to
lightweight"? No idea where it went...

Reminds me of last week I was unable to select the origin point for
dimensions, but this week this is not a problem, I guess this bug took a
holiday and the "set resolved to lightweight" stepped in to fill the spot.

Must be some sort of sun spot cycle not aligning with the planets and
the horse head nebula thingy????

Hahahah (weird Hahahah not funny Hahahah)

Frustrated....

How about Tools>Customize>Options>Shortcut Customization>Show All ?

 

No dice... but thanks on that tip I did not know how to do that

oh, now THAT"s funny.

How Customize > Keyboard > Add Shortcut > Macro > Browse for macro
(NOT in your SW\Macros folder?)

There is an easier way to navigate the rollback bar in the feature
tree. In tool-options-feature manager, check 'arrow key navigation'.
You can then use the arrow keys to move the rollback bar up and down
once it is selected.
