I didn't want to admit that I was stuck in 2007 SP2 Limbo with no possiblility of upgrade at this chicken outfit. Thanks, the depth was the problem. I was trying to keep it small. I'm actually in a plan view. PESOA

Handleman, Thanks. I found the command staring me in the face. I haven't gotten it to work yet though. I tried creating a closed spline and then picking the component that I don't want to show. Then I've tried several depths but none seem to make a difference. When I've finished, the...

Hi, I'm trying to cut away a corner of a component in one of my drawing views in order to show what is underneath. I can't find a command that sounds like it does this but I'm sure there must be one. Does someone have any suggestions? PESOA

Thanks for that tip and all the others. Turns out that the configuration manager of the companny where I am submitting a design blew a gasket when he found out that I was using 2007. He is only at 2006. I went into a panic, but fortunately for me the politics were on my side. Pesoa

That's what I figured. That doesn't help with my drawings.

I'm sure this has been answered several times, but the search engine isn't working and this is time sensitive. Is there any way, without redesigning the whole assembly, to save version 2007 to 2006? Thanks, pesoa

I know it's been a long time since I initiated this thread but I finally got time to download the macro from Lenny's Site. It worked great first time. PESOA

Well, I've tried to remove the color from the feature from and the part. Now I can't select remove but the there is still a color attached to the part and the sweep. I've tried assigning the color in the assembly afterwards and it still doesn't work.

I have a part in SW 2005 that I accidently assigned a color, white, to both the part and a sweep in the part. The part by itself is white, but when I put it in an assembly it's grey. I've think the confusion is because I've assigned the color twice and have been trying to unnassign the color...

I don't have 4.0 available right now and we'll soon be switching over to 2006. Picking the edges instead of the dimensions worked. I have a feeling that the problem lies in the fact that the part is sheet metal and has a few unbends/rebends in it. I think it's having trouble with the...

Updated to SP3.1 and having the same problems PESOA

Right now I'm trying to put a dimple into a sheet metal part and patterning it. I'm getting the dimple from the library and then dimensioning it to the part edges. This works fine. When I go to pattern it, the first dimension doesn't allow me to reverse its direstion. After completing the...

Hey TheTick! That works the way I wanted it. PESOA

Thanks MadMango. I tried it with the points and it worked. Not crazy about all the reference features but it looks good. PESOA

In Pro, I used to be able to create a curve between 2 points and then make it tangent to axes running through the points. I could then use this curve to make a 3D, swept feature to represent a wire or a pipe coming from a connector. The 3D Sketch feature in SW looks like it could be used for...
