Issues changing the solid tree

Issues changing the solid tree

Issues changing the solid tree

(OP)
Hello,
I am trying to change the trim line of a stamping component. I order to make the change; I have to create a pocket. I would like the pocket to be created inside of the "assembly" boolen operation, under a body, to be able to mirror the pocket later. When I try to create the sketch for the pocket, ones each line or curve is created suddenly disappears and I cannot see the last feature created, but the sketch is shown in the solid tree as something that has been already created.
Would you please, let me know how I can make the sketch visible to be able to constrain it and do the change.
Thank you.

Rob

Make sure your active Body for the sketch is visible - NOT in NOSHOW.

The body is visible.

Are you able to post a screen capture while in the sketcher WB? Include the spec tree (extended) and all sketcher icons.

No, I am not.



RE: Issues changing the solid tree

Could you exit Catia and start over.  If you have your session on for a few hours it starts to act odd, even with the "Dassault Approved Hardware"

RE: Issues changing the solid tree

here's something else to try:

TOOLS + OPTIONS + INFRASTRUCTURE + PART INFRASTRUCTURE

in the DISPLAY tab:

turn OFF  "Only the Current Operated Solid"
turn OFF  "Only Current Body"

and just for fun,

turn ON  "Geometry Located After The Current Feature"
