A sub asm may contain the same parts as another sub asm.
1. When the sub asm is an instance of an asm family table, the parts may be selected by the search window by selecting one by one component separated by "and". When the used parts are the same, for inst a screw, the search window does not show you if the right part has been selected. How to put a mark on or change the model tree ID on each component in the model tree ?
2. When the sub asm is not an instance of an asm family table, the sub asm has to be selected by the open window. How to find the right sub asm with the right used parts ?
I would like to have a menu like the following when searching for a sub asm in Creo when searching for an asm, adding a sub asm or replace :
1. type the first part number, all parent asm's using the first part number are stored in session and shown in a table
2. type the second part number, all parent asm's using the first and the second part numbers are stored in session and shown in a reduced table
3. type the third part number, all parent asm's using the first, the second and the third part numbers are stored in session and shown in a shorter table
Continue adding part numbers until the part you type is not used in the same asm as all the numbers used in the table stored in session.
