How to open a multi-configuration file with eDrawing without creating an edrawing file?

3D Design Assembly

Hello

I created an assembly in solidworks with several configurations.

When I want to open it in edrawing, I don't have access to the configurations if I open this solidworks file directly. Even with professional e-drawing. (2018 version)

On the other hand, if I create an edrawing file from solidworks and I activate the configurations, when I open this file with edrawing I can see the different configurations. Is there a way to avoid having to make this edrawing file to get the configurations?

Same behavior in Edrawing 2018, impossible to choose the configuration to open in a solidworks file (it opens the last active configuration when saving the file), it is mandatory to go through the edrawing format to be able to choose the configuration to open.

Hello, it's possible since solidworks 2019, one of the many new features. Explanation here in English:
