I was able to generate a sheetmetal part within a weldment. While in the drawing, the view of the sheetmetal part comes in just as well as the rest of the items. I can't figure out how to bring the flat pattern into my drawing. Does anyone hav a solution? Thanks
When you insert your component notice the "Select Bodies" option in the list. By choosing this option you are able to specify single or a selection of components to bring into a drawing view. In the instance of sheet metal, you can select that component alone, and then it will allow the flat pattern to come through.
Cheers.
I am inserting an item into a drawing using relative view in drawing views. After the view is in the drawing I can click on it and the drawing view box appears. I click "select bodies..." and the tree appears. I am not able to select the flat pattern because it is greyed out. While in the weldment if I unsuppress the flat pattern, everything disappears except for the flat pattern.
Try inserting your view using Model View on the View Layout of the CommandManager, then do what Dean says.
Thanks Dean & Glen. I thought it was going to lock up my computer but it worked
