Push a variant structure from Structure Manager to NX

When a variant rule is in force, you may display a subset of the product structure in Structure Manager, for example, when the View→Show Unconfigured Variants option is set to off. To ensure you see only the configured components in NX:

Procedure Expand the whole structure in Structure Manager by choosing View→Expand Below. Choose Edit→Select Below→Lowest Lines to select the lowest level of the structure.

Note If you select the top-level assembly and click Open in NX, all components are loaded, not just the configured ones. This applies to any assemblies lower down the structure that are not expanded. By default, the Open in NX button and menu command are not visible in Structure Manager. Your administrator must set the TC_show_open_in_NX_button preference to on to make them visible. In NX, click Open on the toolbar or choose File→Open. Browse to the required structure. The Assembly Navigator in NX displays all components in the assembly; unconfigured components are shown as not loaded. The Assembly Navigator cannot distinguish between unconfigured components and those that are manually loaded by pushing them from Structure Manager.
