No shaded with edges on assembly ?

No shaded with edges on assembly ?

(OP)
I have a assembly that doesn't allow me to shade the assembly. So it displays in wireframe mode only, is anyone having the same problem in sw2005 ?

Tools\Large assembly mode - there is an option that might be on. It doesn't have to be in the Tools\Options - Go to the Pull downs and find Large assembly mode icon. Toggle it off and see if that fixes the issue.

RE: No shaded with edges on assembly ?

How large is the file?

As arcticcatmatt suggests, when the problem assy is open, check whether the large assy mode has been activated.
Go to [b]Tools[b] & select or toggle Large assy mode on & off to see if that corrects the problem.

Also go to Tools & select Assembly statistics & post the results.
