Reflect Configuration in CAXA Draft

You can utilize "Configurations" to suppress 3D components and save their positional information, allowing you to project configuration-specific drawings into CAXA Draft.
The bill of materials (BOM) also supports display configurations, enabling you to select and insert items into the BOM accordingly.

Procedures:

[1] Create a 3D model.

[2] Click on "Configuration" at the bottom right of the screen.

[3] Enable the option to retain suppression and position, then create two Configurations.

[4] Make changes such as suppress or repositioning in each configuration to create differences.

[5] Project the "Configurations" into CAXA Draft.

In the [Config] section, select the desired configuration.
