NX8 Model space curves no longer appearing in drafting views

NX8 Model space curves no longer appearing in drafting views

NX8 Model space curves no longer appearing in drafting views

(OP)
After installing Ver 8 it looks like there is switch flipped to only show solids and surfaces.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

I use them quite often and I'm choking on a pile of drafting work.

TIA
Dave

If you're working in Master Model mode, make sure that your curves are in the Model Reference Set.

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

I've got that one covered John. I'm drafting a solid in another component and simply added a construction point / line to model space in the drafting file itself.

Something else is up...

So you're saying that there's still a problem, eh?

Can you upload a simple example showing what you're seeing?

Not to be insulting, but to make sure all bases are covered, you might wish to also check:

Layers Visible In View (model geometry is on a layer that isn't visible in Drafting view).

Hidden Line settings for Drafting views.
