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?
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).
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?
