NX 7.5 Drafting Question
NX 7.5 Drafting Question
(OP)
I have an assembly and I have started a drawing prt. file and added my assembly to it. Now, I want to only show certain components in views. How can I get only the components I want to show in certain views? Do I have to have them all on seperate layers or is there an easier way? Thank you.





RE: NX 7.5 Drafting Question
Yes, you can also use layers and visible in view but it can be more complicated and future users (yourself included) may have a difficult time figuring out what you did and why.
RE: NX 7.5 Drafting Question
Just select the icon and then select the Component(s) of interest in any view that's convenient, or from the Assembly Navigator if that works better, and then select the view(s) which you would like the Components to be visually removed from. Then hit OK and you should be good to go (note that you will also need to update the display of the Drawing views which you've removed Components from).
