Saving Entity State Configuration?

Within the entity state browser tab within HM I can select/deselect components and other entities to appear in particular configurations of my model.

 

Is there a way of saving a particular configuration including all relevant enities so it can be easily retrieved to 'rebuild' a particular config?

 

Currently I may have a model with many options available and to build a specific configuration i will need to select it's particular options such as components, sets, contact surfaces, contacts and deselect non appropriate ones.

 

This process is ok for components since I can place these into particular assemblies which can be switched on and off easily however entities such as sets, contacts and contact surfaces can't be placed in assy's so i need to individually remember to select/deselect these items as i change configurations which is a pain.

 

What would be good is to be able to save a particular config within the entity state browser that included all entities that could be simply selected to turn on and off all relevant entities belonging to the chosen configuration.

 

Is this at all possible currently?

 

Thanks.

 

Rich.

    hi,

    I think there is no available for this issue

    but we can store this type of information in metadata

    a macro will make interface for you with the metadata, helping you to configure it content
