    When I place a plastic part (or Core/Cavity) in a Mold Design iam. The screen stays empty.....

    Editing it via the browser shows the parts are there ?!?

    Also the Cube dissapears......

    So what is going on ?

    All drivers updated, XP64bit, QuadroFX4600, 8GRam

    If you reboot does the ViewCube return?

    Does the part in the Mold Design Tutorial work?

    Can you zip and attach the assembly here?

    Reboot nor reinstalling Tooling changed something.

    Cube is there but when i point at it or at the node from the mobile in the browser, CPU usage goes up for a
    while, after that Cube dissapears or freezes.

    I can edit the base component of the Mobile, no issues in the part environment there.


    Attached the iam and an image.

    I can see the invisibility issue after opening your
    attached assembly.

    You can try to press "Home" Key or click "Zoom All"
    command in the Ribbon tab. It will zoom the part into the graphic
    window.

    I am not sure what's the reason about this issue.
    Could you please post your detail workflow about the creation? So that we can
    reproduce and investigate it.

     

    Thanks,

    Henry

    I tried "zoom all", "find in window" etc....


    Just followed (exactly) the instructions from the "general mold workflow" tutorial that comes with tooling.

    When i place other parts than the mobile it makes no difference, nothing will show up.
    Changing Color or Display options make no difference.
    Roll Back Graphics driver make no difference.
