Solid
Edge - Drafting and Construction Bodies
|
If you have parts in an assembly that are not appearing in your
draft, it is possible this is because they are construction bodies which do not
show up in draft by default. There are two ways to fix this, you can either
make them design bodies or, if you want them as construction bodies, you can
set the draft to show construction bodies.
1) For the first method, double click on the part that isn't showing up and open up the Construction Bodies dropdown:
Then you can right click on each of those, and hit toggle
design/construction. This will make them design bodies which will show up in
the draft by default. They will then show up in the draft.
2) For the second method, open the
assembly in drafting, right click on it and select Properties:
Then click the button shown
in the screenshot below and select List All:
From there you can find the
Construction Bodies and then select Show:
Either one of these methods will allow you to show construction bodies in drafting.
