2D drawing of just one body

Anonymous

Is it possible to make a 2D drawing of just one body?  My design has two bodies, but I want to make a 2D drawing of one of them.  I've tried a number of things, but two bodies always appear in the 2D drawing.

 

Using the New Drawing / From Design command, I deselect Full Assembly and select the body I want to draw from the Browser list.  A ghost image of both bodies is highlighted and then both show up in the 2D drawing.

I got what I needed by making components from the two bodies.  Sorry for the trouble.

@Anonymous, Glad you figured it out! Currently drawing creation based on component level, it requries selecting component. 

Creating component from selected bodies is a good solution for this. Another way is to hide no needed bodies in 2d drawing browser.
