Is it possible to show multiple states over top of one another?

Bob Quinn Apr 17, 2011 5:12 PM

I am working with a sheet metal part, and would like to be able to look at it at multiple unfolded states that are in diffent locations in the tree.

Is there a way to look at two (or more) states at the same time?

You could create configurations of the different bend states, if you want to see more than one state at the same time you could create an assembly and insert the part multiple times and just display the different configurations.

Bob,
I would set these up as different configurations suppressing and unsuppressing
the desired features in the proper configurations. Then setting up the display
states accordingly for each feature.
Hope this helps.

  Thank you, I will have to research how to do that, pretty new to this.
  Glad to know there is a way! Thank you so much!

Not sure if it will work for your sheet metal needs, but check the help files for "Alternate Position Views" also.
