Re: Suppressed component visible in drawing
Make sure that all projected/child view are either using the same config as parent view OR link to parent view.
And also make sure the components are suppressed and not hidden.

Re: Suppressed component visible in drawing
Deepak,
Thank you for the response. I have made sure the config in the drawing is the same as the one in the model, but I actually suppressed the components in every config just to make sure. Also, the components are greyed out in the feature manager, indicating they are suppressed. I also went to "Drawing View Properties" and made sure nothing was listed on the two "Hide/Show" tabs.
However, I just noticed that if I change the "Display Style" to anything other than "Shaded With Edges" the suppressed components disappear. I really need to use Shaded with Edges for clarity though. Does this give you any other ideas what is causing the problem?

Re: Suppressed component visible in drawing
Jonathan,
This sounds very much like a bad behavior. Have you tried testing the file set on another machine? Is your VAR involved with diagnosing this yet? Are you able to upload the file set for us to test with?

Re: Suppressed component visible in drawing
Ryan, I have opened it on another machine and its still there. I haven't involved my VAR, they are out of the office and at SW World. I can't upload the file or post screen shots due to confidentiality. Thanks for trying to help though! Best regards,

Re: Suppressed component visible in drawing
When you make a new drawing an put a view from this assembly in it is the issue still there? Does this happen with other assemblies and their drawings or just this one? Could just be that drawing.

Re: Suppressed component visible in drawing
Can you uncheck " Link Display State ..." in the assembly configuration option and check again
Can you try hiding the unwanted components in the drawing (right click > hide OR use show/hide tab).

Re: Suppressed component visible in drawing
That's a weird one. I assume you've tried a Ctrl+V rebuild, and that didn't fix it? You might also try copying and pasting the drawing view, or the whole sheet, to see if that will fix the problem.

Re: Suppressed component visible in drawing
I tried rebuilding again, still there. I tried copying and pasting the whole sheet and its still there. I tried reinserting the same view on another sheet and the components are not there. I tried projecting a view from the original and they aren't there. I didn't really want to have to redo the drawing but looks like I'll have to. I was hoping someone might know of some option I was missing, and therefore I could learn something. Oh well, I really appreciate you guys trying to help!
Best regards,

Re: Suppressed component visible in drawing
You can always go to the Drawing feature tree and "Hide" the component you don't want visible, sounds like they were set to "Show"...

Re: Suppressed component visible in drawing
Ryan, "When you make a new drawing an put a view from this assembly in it is the issue still there? Does this happen with other assemblies and their drawings or just this one? Could just be that drawing." I started a new drawing and the components don't show, even when I start a new tab in the current drawing the components don't show. If I project the current view, they don't show. If I change the "display style" they don't show. It seems to only be a problem in this one view/display style.
Deepak, The "Link Display State" box was unchecked. I tried checking it and rebuilding, but they still show, so I unchecked it again and they still show.
John, The components were suppressed, which I think means they should be hidden anyway. I tried right-clicking each component and selecting "Hide" but they are still shown. As a side note, if I try to select the component in the drawing view it selects whatever surface is behind it. Its like SW doesn't realize recognize the component is there.
I sincerely appreciate you guys offering suggestions but I think we have to chalk this one up to a bug.
