What's New in SOLIDWORKS 2020 - Flexible Components

What's New in SOLIDWORKS 2020 - Flexible Components. Make any part dynamic with the new Make Part Flexible tool in SOLIDWORKS 2020. Remap external references of parts with ease without creating additional configurations or part files. This optimizes your data management and efficiency visualizing and validating assemblies with motion. Bill of Materials recognize the multiple instances of Flexible Parts as a common part. Drawing references are also maintained without impacting the geometry shown in the drawing.

One of the best functions ever introduced in SolidWorks!

This function can be simulated since SW 2005 professional. It took 15 years to introduce it to the basic version and now they are slapping their shoulders what is new.
I am sorry for my English

Cool feature. But it comes to problem where there is more complex flexible part. I just cant figure it out how to do that with more complex flexible part. I hope there will be some guides for complex flexible parts!

This must have some crazy effect on performance right? Flexible assemblies slow my machine down enough as it is, and now there's this? My boss is going to see this, assume it's no big deal, why don't you go ahead and do that for all springs and bellows and such from now on?
