Is a tool available which will look through the list of all assembly constraints and list all components which are one part of a constraint with a named component. In operation I would likbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbe to select a component from the design explorer and then have it produce list of every other component connected to the initial selected component.

FYI, You can use the post 'edit' feature to correct your posts.
I've been using Alibre for 10 or more years (since before Geomagic) and did not know that list existed. I don't know how many times I've gone down the Design Explorer and 'suspended' every constraint one-by-one until I found the constraint that was preventing me from moving a component to where I then wanted it. Why is something like this not mentioned in the Knowledge Base? Also why, when I've opened the parts constraint list does Alibre block me from using any tools? I click on the individual constraint and the tools list 'Edit, Rename, Suppress, Delete, Status' appears but everything on the list except 'Status' is greyed out. Trying to get back around to where I can edit one of the constraints in the list seems very difficult. But putting that next problem aside, Thank you DavidJ for a spot on suggestion.

Tom,
The constraint lists per part were I think added at a revamp of the Design Explorer - I don't believe they've been there forever.
I don't follow your comment about not being able to use the constraint tools - I must be missing something, I often edit constraints from one of the individual lists.
