Balloons keep hiding
Balloons keep hiding
(OP)
I am having trouble with balloons. I have two views on an assembly view drawing sheet. I use one for the hot half of my mold cavity and one for the ejector half. These views are of the same assembly, but are different display states to show the appropriate components.After I create my BOM, I balloon these two views and everything looks great. Then after a rebuild the balloons on the second view (the one not used to create the BOM) disappear. If I select hide/show annotations from the View Menu, the balloons appear in light gray and I can select them and they will show in black. Then anytime a rebuild occurs, for any reason, these balloons disappear again and I have to go through the same procedure again to get them to show up again. I tried Keep Linked to BOM checked and unchecked and it had no effect. Does anyone have any ideas on anything I can try differently?
Thanks,

RE: Balloons keep hiding
Does the same happen with configurations?
Does this happen with very simple assemblies using the same method?
RE: Balloons keep hiding
I didn't think it was a driver issue because the balloons show up as hidden and I can unhide them and they look fine. They just become hidden again. Plus it only seems to pertain to balloons from 1 particular view.
I will experiment with some smaller assemblies and configurations as well.

I like display states because they are so easy to create using the isolate command, but the different configurations are just as easy to create using the display states.

I don't know if this would be considered a bug or a candidate for an ER. Perhaps you should find out what your VAR thinks about it.
