How to remove wireframe/x-ray and make it solid when placing a new component

yateslowell — Thu, 18 Mar 2021 16:11:53 GMT

I am creating a wooden box to store canned goods for an emergency.

I can see all solid components when I select the top level assembly. Fig 1.

I then create a new component (Left Side Plywood) and add a new body to it. When I select and make "Left Side Plywood" active, I see the component I just created and a wireframe or x-ray type view of the rest of the assembly. Figure 2.

The issue is that when I want to do a point to point move of the new "Left Side Plywood to move it to a certain point on the main assembly. The multiple layers "wireframe/x-ray" image makes it difficult to find the proper destination point. Figure 3.

It is especially challenging when there is many components displayed and I am trying to locate the correct point to move it. Fig 3 again.

I checked the "Display Settings --> Visual Style --> Shaded with visible edges only" and it didn't work.

Regards,

Lost and confused

Which software are you using exactly? I suspect you are really lost 😉

@yateslowell

I think you need to post your question in the Fusion Forum.
