Using Usage Levels

Notice that the Level number in the upper right corner has changed to 002. This indicates the number of times you have expanded usages beginning with the original model object.

For a more complex example, a model object may have many levels of using objects. The value of *NEXT in the Scope field lets you step through the expansion of usages one level and one model object at a time. In other words, you can type 91 for any using objects to determine its usage. The Level shown at the upper right of the screen shows the current level. The F3 key lets you back up one level at a time; the F15 key returns to the top level.

Note that you can change the Scope field to *NOMAX to expand all usages for a selected model object. However, for working models this can require significant processing time.
