Benefits: When you create a model instance, support for copying additional objects into the current working model is now available. In the model attributes you can now control whether particular objects are to be copied during model instancing. These enhancements improve model instancing usability.
Description: Copying connector section assignments and surface-to-surface contact and self-contact interactions defined in the initial step (along with their contact interaction properties) from the referenced model into the current working model is now supported for model instancing. By default, these objects, as well as constraints, will be copied to the current working model when you create model instances. To change this behavior, you can now edit the model attributes and indicate the objects that you do not want copied.
