Copying Configuration Tables between Part Studios and Assemblies

sam_parsons

Is there a way to copy the configuration lists, checkboxes, and variables that are set up in a part studio into an assembly? Or even between part studios?

I can duplicate part studios which copies across the config variable and tables, but I'd really like to be able to copy the configuration inputs and it's rows (I understand that columns will likely change) so that I can them through to the parts in the assembly.

Thanks

You can only copy one table at a time. Another copy would overwrite the clipboard.

You only need to create a table and define the features you want to configure. 

Then you create all your rows in the spreadsheet much easier. Then copy that and paste back into Onshape.

Just don't copy the header rows as they will be treated as a configuration instance too when you paste it back in

The copy option is at the top right of the config fly out.



I recommend pasting into a blank speadsheet and copy what you need, excluding the header row

Thanks for the speedy response!

Am I right in saying that you can only copy one table at a time? And that even though you can copy the table contents, you still have to manually add each table and variable? Because I've been using quite a long list of config variables.
