Design Explorer view

[Uman]

When opening a part or assembly, the Design Explorer begins with Constraints at the top of the window. Configuration, Axes, Planes, Points and Exploded Views are out of initial view.

So many times I begin to edit and later realize I overlooked to set Configurations. I think the Design Explorer should open with a view of the window top and Configurations is in initial view.

Also, collapse the Constraint list on open and have the header "Constraint" change to red, if there is a constraint fault in the list. Then the individual faulted constraint should change color (red?) to become more apparent. The italicize fault is easy to miss.

Uman - I turned this in twice as a suggestion, 9/2005 and 5/2007, and haven't seen anything yet.
I'll tell you the thing that bugs me about the bad constraints though. If you have a bad constraint it's italicized and looks a little different but if you hover your mouse over it the font changes to regular-bold. But even the valid constraints are regular-bold when you hover over them. So when I try to delete a bad constraint, I have to take extra care that I have the right one.
