Components in simulation not visible

Anonymous — Mon, 26 Feb 2018 19:46:54 GMT

Hello,

I have a problem in one of my fusion 360 designs. I can see everything in model space but when I go to do a simulation not a single component is visible. Pre-check: no valid bodies found.

Hi @Anonymous

Thanks for posting! It looks like you are experiencing a problem in which your model is not visible in the Simulation workspace of Fusion 360. I am sorry to hear this.

I had a look at this on my end and noticed that the component visibilities are individual for the Model and Simulation workspaces - just because a component is shown in the model workspace, it may not be in the Simulation workspace. If you expand the "Model Components" folder in the browser, are the model components shown?

If the model components are shown there and should be visible, please share the design you are experiencing this problem in with me using any of the techniques at this link - I am happy to help!

Hello,

All my components are visible. I will attach my file.

Hi @Anonymous

Thanks for posting the file! I had a look this morning and found that, when I initially entered the Simulation workspace, the model was not shown even though all the model components should be visible. I've logged a ticket with the development team (internal reference FUS-38589) to investigate how this may have occurred - we appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

I did find that you can get the model to show correctly in the Simulation workspace if you enter the Simplify command, don't do anything, and then exit the command. This is shown below:

I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi, I'm having a similar problem but with only one of the components. The given solution doesn't help.
