Did they send you the part and sub-assembly files, or just the main assembly?
main assembly with x.t format
I'm not familiar with that format. Do you mean you got that instead of a .SLDASM file?
they save as the main assembly with xt format and send to us
I rarely use Parasolids, but I just saved an assembly as .xt, then opened it with SW and it opened fine. I assume you've tried right-clicking on the parts in the tree and trying to un-suppress. If no one else posts with another idea you might need to contact the company, explain the situation to them, and ask them to re-send it.
I assume you meant the file has a .x_t extension. .x_t & .x_b extensions are parasolid formats (text & binary).
As Glenn suggested, the other company has probably just suppressed the assy components to reduce the file size. Unsupress them all & you should be good to go.
Thank you for kindly reply
So did you get it to work?
Dear Glenn
I can’t get it because I haven’t enough time.
I try to unsuppressed all parts and subassembly in huge assembly and this is very monotonous. I try to finish today.
I think solid works must be have a command that user can suppressed and unsuppressed all parts, sub assembly and parts within sub assembly in the main file.
I think we can suggest to solid works company to design a command for this problem.
There is a command. "Unsuppress with Dependents"
Select the top level assembly in the feature tree and go to Edit > Unsuppress with Dependents (select which configuration you need it for)
There is another way for it:
Do a save of the assembly as parasolid or other format and SolidWorks will prompt your for resolving the suppressed/hidden components. Select Yes and all components will be resolved. You may then delete the saved parasolid file.
thank you very very much dear deepak and other friends that replied....
