View Reps not updating if already attached to a drawing?

chris — Thu, 15 Aug 2024 19:16:21 GMT

Is there a reason why if I have a series of view reps and a drawing containing views using those view reps exists, that if/when I add more parts to the assembly and I go into each view rep and turn off the vis of the parts that need to be turned off, that when I go back to the drawing, all the newly added parts are visible in each view rep "REGARDLESS" of me taking to the time in the assemblies view rep's to turn them off.

Then I have to spend an hour going into each sheet, each view, each detail, each section, etc and manually turn off those newly added parts? Seems low rent, what's the point of having view reps if I have to manually control them in the drawing views?

Are your view reps locked?

See if the attaches better explains what I was referring to. Maybe this is not the issue?

Try set it to "Associative":

Or switch to another ViewRep and back in the drawing view will "update" it.
