Partial Shading in drawing view - NX7.5
Partial Shading in drawing view - NX7.5
(OP)
So I toggled on partial shading in a 3D drawing view, and I saw only one of my components getting shaded, which is just what I want, but with a differnt component.
When utilizing partial shading in a drawing view, what is the driving force at what gets shaded and what does not get shaded ?

RE: Partial Shading in drawing view - NX7.5
If you set the partial shading setting in the leaf part, it will be partially shaded in any assembly above , including the drawing.
If you set it on "a component" it will only be partially shaded in this assembly, and since a drawing is an assembly in technical aspects, you need to assign the setting in this assembly ( =The drawing) if you haven't done so in the leaf part. - Clear ?
The setting is "instance specific" which means that if you have 4 identical components ( same leaf part,4 instances) you can assign the PS on "any" of the 4.
In the leaf part, select the body ( or the relevant faces) and Edit- Object display - Partially shaded= on
In the assembly select the component ( or the relevant faces of the component) -"-
Note that if a leaf part is toggled "partially shaded", you can in any assembly toggle off the PS in this specific assembly, the PS will "re-appear" in the next level.
