In solid works I need to make an array of 'pixels' each with a different height. I can make each pixel as a configuration from a design table but I can't display all of the configurations at once or is there a better way.

Hi, here is my solution. In my mind, you already familiar with Design Table & Configuration, so i skip with the setup. What you need to do just make an assembly.

Hey there, I realise this is an old post, and hopefully you got it all sorted by now, but if not, check out what I did with pixels in design tables here: http://digitalsmokesignal.blogspot.de/2010/07/excel-spreadsheet-solidworks-3d-pixel.html
If that's the kind of thing you want to achieve, let me know and I can offer some assistance.
