Sketch dimensions in assembly won't turn off.

Keith Meyer Apr 23, 2014 8:41 AM

I inserted a vendor downloaded part into an assembly model and sketch dimensions are there like a sketch is open. They're not showing up in the part model unless I open the sketch. Equations are showing too. Some of the dimensions appear to be dangling. The part was a earlier version saved as a current (2012) version. Any suggestions out there?

Hi Keith,

Can you please upload the model so that we can understand the query more clearly?
What i understood is that you are able to see the sketch dimensions on screen with soem dangling dimensions.
And you want the model to be fully constraint.

Please let me know th exact query.

Right-click on the Annotations folder and see if "Show Feature Dimensions" is turned on.

    I don't see how. I didn't think anyone typed slower than me.

      I think you've lost your title as Worlds Slowest Typist!

Keith,

Have you tried turning the annotations display off at the part level? You can also try View>All Annotations, and make sure that is unchecked. The second option just turns the display off, but it's not saved to the part. If you turn display annotations off at the part level, it will save this information with the part for the next time that you open. Hopefully that's all it takes.
