Instantiating a Component Using the Immersive Chooser Integration

You can instantiate family items using the immersive chooser which proves useful if you want to use component families without catalogs and if you want to improve the usability of your component family (especially for component families of Design type).


Before you begin: You must have created a component family and saved it.

Managing Catalogs of Component Families
  1. Create a product.
  2. Open the Component Family Definition.
  3. Tile the tab vertically to display both tabs. To do so, click one of the two tabs and drag it down to the 3D area.
  4. Select Insert > Existing > 3D Part.
  5. In theChooser, click a component in the component family editor.
    The component is instantiated into the product.

Note: The on-demand generation only works if it does not need batch resolution. If a resolution needs a batch resolution (wrong user, or overwrite requested while the previous object was already in session), the selection is not taken into account.
