Filtering parts out on assembly drawings

Filtering parts out on assembly drawings

Filtering parts out on assembly drawings

(OP)
Hello
New to this site and just back on nx7.5 after spending the last couple of years on catia v5. Formerly on nx6.
What is the best method for filtering out parts on an assembly drawing? I need to filter out different parts in different views.
Thanks.

RE: Filtering parts out on assembly drawings

Once you've got your Drawing views defined, go to...

Assemblies -> Context Control -> Hide Components in View...

...select the components (you can select them in any view that you wish or from the Assembly Navigator) that you want to 'remove' and then select the view of interest and hit OK. Note that you'll need to do an 'Update Views' operation afterwards to get the Drawing to look correct.
