Summary: Make it easier to edit iMates in a iAssembly
Description: Allow full editing capability of iMates contained within an iComposite. This applies to both Part Modeling and Assemblies.
How Used: This is important for an evolving design. If the user wants to edit and iMate that is contained within an iComposite, then all of the iMates must be removed from the iComposite, the iComposite must be deleted, the iMate in question is then edited, then recreate the iComposite. This is all necessary just to edit one iMate while maintaining the rest of the original iComposite and its other component iMates. This is unnecessary wasted time and effort and can be avoided if an iMate had full edit capability while still being contained under an iComposite.
Feature Affinity: Assemblies
