    Configuration Manager Icon

    The best way to test that is for you to delete the Limit mate and click over to the config Icon and see if it's still there. If not then you have your answer, if so then it's something else. You can alwasy undo or not save the file after you delete the mate. support69 [conehead]

    Failed to Save

    I had a user tell me this the other day. They were getting the same issue as you are and said what they done was they closed many windows that were open (ones that had previously been saved) and then the assembly would save fine. So if you many windows open, close some and see if that helps...

    Configuration Manager Icon

    The Green Down arrow indicates an Exploded view... if you are talking about the plus sign right where the green arrow is at, that is just part of the icon with the green arrow. Regards, support69 [conehead]

    SW2006: Dimensioning (and other things) in Sketch not Working Correctl

    Best things you can do is take screen shots of what you are seeing and try to reproduce it from time to time with RX running. This problem needs to be recorded I agree, but I understand how hard it can be to capture as well. I do hope you guys capture this issue with both RX and Screen shots...

    Hidden menu - Multi-jog Balloon leader!

    I don't see a multi-jog leader in SW06 SP3. I still see all the same leaders as before. I know there is an icon for Multi-jog leaders, but it's has nothing to do with Balloons from a BOM. You can split the arrowhead and make 2 arrowheaded leaders, is that what you did? support69 [conehead]
