CATIA V5 - Component Display in Drawing
(OP)
I have received a CATIA V5 drawing with views that are generated from a CATPart file that contains several components. I have three views in which I want to make one of the components invisible. How do I make the component invisible in only selected views?

Did you change the link of the view?

use the View.Object / Modify link to use / not use bodies / geometrical set.

1. In the CATDrawing file I unlocked the views in the drawing that I want to blank the components.
2. Open the CATPart file and HIDE the components that I want invisible in the drawing views.
3. Go back to the drawing and update the unlocked views. This made the desired components invisible.
4. Lock the changed views.
5. Go back to the CATPart file and UNHIDE the components.
6. Save the drawing file.
It was simple and worked well.

Just so long as you never have to update the drawing, or provide it as data to an OEM. (it won't pass the configuration conrol criteria)
For in-house hack and slash, it's *a* way of doing things.
