Envelope does not show up in the drawing
Envelope does not show up in the drawing
(OP)
I made an envelope in the assy so it doesn't appear in Bill of Material but at the same time it doesn't show up in my assy drawing.
Right clicking does not change anything.
Any clues?

RE: Envelope does not show up in the drawing
While envelopes consist of part files and geometry, the intent for them is that they be treated in a manner similar to datums and other construction geometry.

Insert your ENVELOPE part into your assembly as a regular part.
Then create a CONFIGURATION with this part SUPPRESSED.
Then in your drawing, create a view using the new configuration.
Hide this view and use it to insert your BOM.
Use any other views to detail your assembly and populate the fields in your title block.
The only catch is that your "envelope" part needs to show-up at the bottom of your feature manager tree - otherwise your item bubbles may not match your BOM.
I'm 95% sure this will get you what you need.

I think I will create regular part and uncheck it in the BOM.
I just thought that envelope could be seen in drawing if it apears in assy still being invisible in BOB.
That's all.

It might be prudent to verify this before spending a lot of time setting-up your assemblies this way.
