Detail not showing in drawing

jag75auau — Mon, 07 Aug 2017 23:50:38 GMT

I have recently changed jobs and noticing something in Inventor I haven't seen before. After creating a view in a drawing partial detail is missing from the model. Can be anything from 1 particular part/assembly from the view or randomly missing parts within a pattern. Attached is an example of what I am experiencing.

Cheers

Hi John,

The behavior does not look right. This is so-called culling error, meaning Inventor has trouble finding who is behind whom. It ends up removing the wrong component. There are a few causes leading to this behavior. The most common cause is component interference or bad bodies. Please open the source assembly and run Interference Analysis. If there are interference, try to fix them. A well-designed assembly should not have any interference unless there is intent to accommodate material contraction.

Usually after you fix up interference, the components will be shown correctly all of a sudden.

Many thanks!

I am sure @johnsonshiue has your correct answer but check if they are surface bodies and they might need including
