Object Dependencies 

Use

You can use the modeling environment for Variant Configuration to create object dependencies and assign or edit existing ones. The modeling environment provides two wizards and a syntax editor for working with object dependencies.

For an overview of the purpose and features of object dependencies, see Object Dependencies.

Integration

The modeling environment provides all of the functions you need to create and work with object dependencies.

Prerequisites

To use constraints, you need a configuration profile for the material and a constraint net for the configuration profile.

For creating and editing object dependencies in the modeling environment, see:

·        Creation of Dependencies with the Wizard

·        Editing of Dependencies with the Editor

·        Editing of Object Dependencies

·        For information about the where-used list for object dependencies, see Where-Used List for Global Object Dependencies.

·        In addition to the objects in the model, the worklist allows you to manage existing object dependencies and create new global dependencies.
