I'm missing something somewhere but how do I open a model file from a drawing view? I googled and found reference to a macro.....surely that's not it?

IIRC just double click the view.

I click the drawing view, and a breadcrumb appears that gives me the option of opening the model.
I grabbed this from a GoEngineer video. You can see the breadcrumbs in the corner, but they are translucent because he is already moving away.

This made my morning!
So @jcapriotti, does double clicking the view still work? IIRC there may have been a setting added that changed that. I tried to find it but I couldn't, thanks to the terrible organization and behavior of the Solid Edge settings UI.
By the way, if you cannot find a setting make sure you have the document type open that the setting would have an effect on. Someone had the bright idea of only showing settings that correlate to open doc type. Hopefully they fix that some day.

It did....not very discoverable but stupidly simple once you know. If I could just combine the best of Works and the best of Edge, I'd be happy.bnemec wrote: ↑Wed May 11, 2022 9:19 am This made my morning!
