What does a warning symbol indicate on a feature in the part navigator?

A warning symbol in the part navigator serves as an important visual cue regarding the status of a feature within a design. Specifically, it indicates that there is a serious problem with that feature, meaning it has failed to update as intended. This could be due to various reasons such as conflicting parameters, missing references, or changes in dependent features that hinder the successful update of the feature.

When you see this warning symbol, it prompts the designer to investigate the feature to understand the underlying issues that are preventing it from functioning properly. Resolving these problems is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the overall design and ensuring that all features operate as expected and contribute correctly to the final part.

Recognizing the status indicated by the warning symbol is vital. It signifies a need for immediate attention rather than indicating minor issues or simply a hidden feature. Understanding this helps designers manage their projects effectively, ensuring that any design modifications do not lead to cascading failures within other dependent features.
