Welcome to How It's Designed! In this Solidworks Tutorial, I cover a Solidworks video example of setting up basic configurations based on barrel length of a part. Create varying dimensions derived from one part using the Solidworks configurations feature!

You don't need to add an extrude for every new configuration. Simply change the length of the existing extrude and apply that rule to one configuration instead of all of them.

thankyou

[@dinudu_shashmira]

very helpful

[@user-zb5vs1ny4i]

Thank you! Very helpful:)

[@ToluFunnel]

I noticed you converted entities before adding length. Isn't it possible for you to edit the original sketch to increase the length of model from there instead of adding sketches for each configuration?

[@rameshgttc]

Great.. but how to delete all confirgurations

[@SinCity4o1]

Right click and delete

[@mjw907]

Doesn't work for me. I make new configurations and they make all other configuraitons identical to whatever I changed. Can't even undo.

Am I the only person who renames their features? Maybe I'm just OCD, but I like named features.

[@hoodmauermann8722]

Not a very way to design. You shouldn't add additional material. You should change the original sketch.

Yeah I was expecting the configurations to be setup with a global variable
