Configuration Table problem

I’m a relative newbie, so consider that...

Any idea what’s going on here?

I’ve used a configuration table before without issue, but for some reason I can’t reference the variables in this table.
I also don’t get any hint as to what the problem is.

    It looks like you're using a mobile version of Onshape (iPad?). I don't think that variables are available on mobile (yet!).
    @steve_shubin (who is a master on mobile) is that true?

    Hi @romeograham

    You can indeed make variables using mobile




  • I deleted that part studio, created a new one, and it’s working as expected now. There was something fishy with that part studio.
  • variables work fine in the iOS mobile version. You can’t manage configuration tables, but if you create them in a browser, you can use the variables on the mobile version.

    I may have found the root cause of my problem. I didn’t realize that when you rename a configuration variable, that the underlying #name isn’t changed.
