I saw at some point an advertisement for releasing different versions of a main design. I think this was to enable components to be left off a BOM or indicate components are not fitted? I never looked into it properly and now do not know where that feature is? Is it a V19 feature or some weird dream I had?

Thanks

Trev

Just a follow up. The variant option is fantastic, really liking it.

My mistake, it is working. Thank you for the support.

Well I created a variant in my design. But when I got to BOM composer I am not sure how I select only parts for that variant? Can you help with this please?

Yes, variants and BOM composer should work together.

Excellent, was worried having such dreams represented a lack of a life so am now full of relief!

Can the assembly variants be used with BOM composer? It does not say on the help page it can.

It is not a dream, in fact it is so much not a dream that it was actually back in V17 that "assembly variants" were introduced. As the feature list on the home page says:

Easily create two or more variations of your design without having to create separate design files or have to resort to complicated schemes to create your Bill of Materials (BOM).
