Element Organization

Organize elements in the Browser Configuration dialog.

You can set the element organization field to one of the following options:
Automatic
The Connector is automatically organized based on its links. It will break any current ownership of the Connector. The realization will follow the Connector into the new location based on the Connector links. The Connector will be classified as a General Connector (all connector links are in the same subsystem or no subsystem) or a Subsystem Connector (one or more links are in multiple subsystems).
Manual
The Connector is not organized during the realization. Depending on what owns the Connector, the behaviours are slightly different:
Part
If you have placed the Connector into a part, the Connector will follow the part into its owning Subsystem. The realization will be created into a new part with the original part reference in the name within the Connector Realization Part Assembly.
Figure 1.


Subsystem
If you have placed the Connector into a Subsystem, the Connector will flow directly into the subsystem. The realization will be created into a new Part with the owning subsystem reference in the name within the Connector Realisation Part Assembly.
Organizing the Connector can be done through the Organize tool on the Assembly ribbon.
Figure 2.


Organizing the Connector can be done through the Browser context menu Organize options.
Source Part
Will place the Connector into the Part that contains the Geometry the Connector was created from. Select Organize > Source Part from the context menu.
Automatic
Will follow the Automatic logic above. Select Organize > Automatic from the context menu.
