in isometric view I can not see anything
in isometric view I can not see anything
(OP)
Hello,
I use NX 7.5 and I have made an assembly drafting. I have already created the drawing views and now I have to insert an isometric view of the assembly. Unfortunatelly, I can't see anything in this view. I have to say that all the layers are visible and selectable.
I'm sure there is a setting, but I don't know where to look.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you!

RE: in isometric view I can not see anything
I have finnaly solved the problem toggling "off" the option "Reference" from "View Style" command, "General" tab.
Unfortunately, I really don't understand what this option does... but in this case it worked.
Thanks again!
RE: in isometric view I can not see anything
And once you're done adding annotation and creating sections and detail views, adding whatever additional items are needed to your Drawing you can leave as many of the view in this 'Reference' status as you wish since when you 'export' the Drawing, either by plotting/printing it or as a PDF or CGM file, the 'Referenced' views will all be displayed as expected. They only are 'invisible' when working with the Drawing on the screen. This can help you overcome performance issues when all that you need to do is open a drawing to add a few additional items, edit something which may only require access to a couple of drawing views, etc.
Also, years ago, there was a limitation where you could only display on the screen something like 50 active drawing views on a single drawing sheet and so this was a way to allow you to have more than the 50 views on a sheet by setting some of them to 'Reference' status.
