Speedpak maybe?

Sid Humphreys Mar 18, 2013 12:28 PM

Afternoon,

I have assembly that I want to be able to see the parts when I pick on them in the model tree. When I pick on a part in the model tree, all I get is a square envelope around the part of where it is in the assembly. I want to see the whole part and its outline. Is this a function of speedpak or what else maybe? Whatever it is, I want to be able to see the part and if it IS speedpak, how do I disable it please?

Thanks

Sid

Here it is: http://help.solidworks.com/2011/English/SolidWorks/sldworks/AllContent/SolidWorks/Core/Assemblies/t_SpeedPak_Switching_SpeedPak_and_Parent.htm.

By the way, why did you start a new discussion instead of responding on the original one?

  Glenn, I thought I was in the wrong area for my question was the reason. The link you sent me, is that the reason I am seeing what I am seeing? I am not sure if speedpak is what I am after. All I get is a box around my components when selected from the model tree. I want to be able to see the part.

    The directions on that link should help you figure out if your assembly has a SpeedPak configuration, and if so, if it's active. I don't use SpeekPak myself, but the directions look pretty straightforward.
    
    And for the future if a discussion is in the wrong classification you can click on "Move discussion" near the top right instead of starting a new one.

Sid, most likely the SpeedPak does not have anything to do with what you are experiencing. It is possible that the bodies are hidden inside those parts.

Open one of those parts. Do you see the model?
