Ballooning issue with revolve...
Ballooning issue with revolve...
(OP)
I'm trying to balloon an exploded view and everything else will accept an item numbered balloon except this little o-ring which is just a sketched circle revolved. Any ideas?

Another thing to try is to open the assembly in the exploded state and also open the O-ring. Do a Ctrl+Q on both items and save them. then open the drawing to see if you can now balloon the O-ring.
Sometimes with exploded views the part becomes invisible on the drawing because you either modified the exploded view for that item or you replaced that item with a different one. Using the Ctrl+Q method has worked for me.

I suspect that by adding the split line into the o-ring, you effectively did a rebuild (per jksolid) which updated the exploded assy.
