Details
The bounding box of 'open by proximity' does not include the selected component
Solution
Open by Proximity does not support flexible components. This is based on the fact that the spatial filtering is based on the bounding boxes associated with the part occurrences in the assembly. If you perform object information on the flexible component, you will see that the bounding box presented for this
component just reflects its nominal position and size, rather than the position and shape the flexible component took on in order to follow guide curve data in the assembly part. So, the open by proximity results will just reflect the bounding box overlaps (or proximity), but since the flexible components bounding box does not necessarily correspond to the shape/position that the flexible geometry got modeled to in the assembly, the results returned by open by proximity will not reflect the flexible geometry position/shape.
