Isolate Drawing Views

Isolate Drawing Views

Isolate Drawing Views

(OP)
I did not think ahead when creating my assembly, so I have several objects in one part.  I want to show some of these features in a drawing view while hiding others.  Unfortunately, configurations and display states only work with assemblies and parts, not features.  Does anyone know a quick fix to this problem?  I can't even find a way to break the link between the drawing view and model.

RE: Isolate Drawing Views

Make a configuration of the part and suppress the unnecessary features.

Please be aware that suppression propagates to child features also.

Regards

RE: Isolate Drawing Views

My last post was incomplete.

1. After creating the configuration, make a drawing with the necessary views.

2. Right click on the view and select properties. Now under " Coniguration Properties" select 'use Named Configuration " Button.

3.Now select the required configuration.
