Bubble numbers

Bubble numbers

(OP)
The bubble number verification on the Bills of Material table shows that all parts are bubble numbered, however in instpecting the drawing sheets we discover that this is not the case. Some parts are not bubble numbered, but the Bill of Material table indicates that everyting has a bubble number. Has anyone had this problem?

RE: Bubble numbers

I've seen that issue when the part in question is hidden or obscured in the specific view. Have you tried numbering another view as well in which the part is visible?

Actually I had a "DUH" moment. If you select the view tab in the menu there is a SHOW/HIDE ANNOTATIONS command that will show if any bubble numbers are hidden. We have our drawings created offshore and for some reason they hid some of the bubble numbers. You get what you pay for.
Thanks for the reply.

RE: Bubble numbers

Is this a new feature in 2014?

RE: Bubble numbers

Actually we are using 2012 about to upgrade to 2013. Always behind the times.
