Show the "other" source of constraint conflicts.

Summary: Be able to see all the offending constraints when there is a multiple errors

Description: To improve the Assembly Place Constraint error Pop-up window by naming both sides of an inconsistency.

How Used: When a constraint is inconsistent with another one, that other constraint remains unnamed. My wish is that that constraint(s) would be named to avoid a long a tedious search. I wish there would be a shortcut in the pop-up that send you to the other constraint place in the browser. The highlight of the parts involved is seldom enough to solve the puzzle.

This is done through "Diagnose Constraint".

Diagnose Constraint is cumbersome and hard to work with.
We need a list of Other sources of conflict

[pan.137897]

It's quite a challenge to find working way of finding conflicting constraints, since the system that includes confliction can have many "circular" constraints and it's impossible to software to analyse witch one of constraints are higher in relevancy list. In case the constraints are "wisely" made only with one part constrained to another - you won't need this function. The best constrain is the one you don't make!
"Diagnose Constraint" is not good but I can't figure out how to make this work well.
