During the conceptual design phase, a whole product or different shape alternatives are often designed in a single 3D Part.

If the different elements of a product, or the different variants of a geometry, need to be used in CATIA Product Perception Experience (PPX), it is therefore recommended to use the Distribute command prior to inserting the data in PPX.

The Distribute command is found last in the Tools section of Part Design and GSD. It has been introduced in 20x.

This video shows how we used used it during the concept phase of the bleu iX steering wheel, to illustrate very early its kinematics with simple Position variants:
