Wire harness in OnShape.

Hi all.

I'm trying to make a wireharnes layout drawing with pinouts in OS, and I'm having some trubles.
I've been using the wiring FeatureScript (works for some of the things I'm trying to do, but not all, like flatcabel).

The main problem I have right now is that I can't figure out how to attach the pinout in a good way in the drawing. I've tried to inser views of the connectors, but I can't get it to play nice.


I'm aiming for something closer to this:



I also trying to automate it a bit with the ability to select like 5 connectors on one side and 5 on the other with points as markers, but it's a bit tricky to make it work as I want to.

Any suggestions?

    I've been jumping through silly hoops just getting a wire harness to properly work with my top-level assembly.

    I'll be watching your progress here, because I'd like to see you succeed in this related endeavor.
    Are you starting with a "wooden wiring board" part to which you fasten the connectors?
    Maybe share your project? I'd love to peek at it.
