      Hallo,

      In attached drawing I have created a ship's crane.
      Basically the crane consist of 3 main components , each inside eachother.

      Component 1 - Crane Complete. This entire component consists comp. 2 and 3 and is able to rotate all over the Zaxis.

      Component 2 - Boom. This component is inside comp.1 and is able to rotate over the Yaxis together with component 3.

      Component 3 - Hook. This component is inside comp.2 and is able to move up/down by Zaxis.

      Comp 2 and 3 are linked to each other is such a way that the Block(comp 3) always stays under the end of the Boom(comp 2).

      So far so good after quiet some brainwaves.

      If I click in component 1, I can only use its own dynamic options. (The options of comp 2 and 3 are not visible).
      The reach component 2 dynamic options, I have to go deeper inside comp. 1 to reach comp. 2 and same for comp 3 to go even 1 step deeper.

      I would like to see all dynamic options in 1 window at first click on component 1.
      Can't figure out how without messing up movements.

      Very important is that when rotating comp1 , comp.2 and 3 move along.
