It’s inconsistent. Sometimes the configuration sliders appear (when on VPN) and sometimes they don’t. I can’t see any pattern – they’re just generally slow to appear and sometimes they never appear.

They look great… geometrically:
But, what now? How do I proceed and make a BOM out of this? How can I count how many of each pieces I have to order?
When I did an export using 3DBI to count the number of instances per definition, it seems that internally they are groups? That is a bit unfortunate, because every piece is then considered unique and it is impossible, without looking at the geometry, to count the number of unique pieces and how many of those there are present in the model.
Here you can see that I select 3 pieces and Power BI shows me there is just one instance of that definition and that it is a Group:
Are there future plans to also add more meta data to LC’s?

Hi Kenney
This is something we have on the roadmap. Basically we want Live components to be easily leveraged in Generate Report or with other tools. We also want the final structure of LCs to match the kind of high quality content that people would create manually. Meaning things like nested objects are well named and have clean attributes, materials, etc so they can be leveraged further downstream in the construction process.
