    "Get Model Sketches" in IDW views

    I have been trying to get some model sketches to become visible in a part's
    view in an IDW. New for R6.

    I have found that when I have more than one sketch, only one will appear in
    the IDW. Which one isn't controllable. One time, the second visible sketch
    showed up. I did another test part/drawing and this time the first visible
    sketch showed up in the IDW.

    Just by the name on the tool, "Get Model Sketches" leads me to believe that
    we should be able to get multiple sketches - preferably be able to select
    which ones.

    The trick to getting this to work so others can try their luck is...

    in the browser, RMB on a view and select "show components".
    Then in the item that appears below the view, RMB and select "Get Model
    Sketches".

    Report back your results. I'd be interested in knowing how this behaves in
    R6 w/o SP1.
    Please use plain text.
