Problem, two assembly trees in same assembly, How to fix???

Helge Nodland Feb 4, 2014 12:06 PM

I was doing an assembly, and suddenly I noticed that I had two assembly trees in the same assembly. The two trees are identical.

When I right click on the "Top_Plate" and turn on transparency, the "Bottom_Plate" becomes transparent.

Last time I had this duplicate problem I started from scratch, but now it have happened again and I really would like to figure out why this happens.

Please advice. (Student noob...)

Thanks.

There's a divider bar between the two Feature Manager windows. Drag it to the top.

  Hi Walter.
  
  Thanks for the reply, However I found that I had not saved for a while so I just exit without saving, and the problem went away, along with 30 min work.
  I will try your fix if this happens again.Thanks again.
  
  Cheers Helge.

Welcome to SolidWorks forums Helge.

Check the attached video for some clarification. The pointer will be different than what is there in the video. You can simply drag that divider or double click on that to make that go OR reappear.

You might also find this post helpful for your future reference.
