Assembly CreateSnapshot/cs

Description

The Assembly CreateSnapshot tool captures the current assembly state (placement and visibility) in a Snapshot object. Double-clicking the Snapshot object restores the assembly to that state.

Usage

1. Make sure that an assembly is active.
2. There are several ways to invoke the tool:
   • Press the Snapshot button.
   • Select the Assembly → Snapshot option from the menu.
3. If no Snapshot object pre-exists: A Snapshots container is added to the active assembly.
4. A Snapshot object containing a capture of the current assembly state is added to the Snapshot container.
5. Optionally double-click any available Snapshot object to restore its stored assembly state.

Notes

Snapshot objects are permanently inactive (grayed out) ignoring the Visibility property.
