Absolute beginners question.

When on the design screen I have a basic 3D cube with a hole through it, however my screen is completely grey and can not see any components of my design unless I run my cursor over the parts. How can I change this so I can see my entire design?

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Can you post a screenshot of your whole Fusion screen?  I suspect that you may have inadvertently turned off the visibility of some or all of your model.  A screen image would help me see if this is true.  Sharing the entire design is also a good way to help us figure this out.

Make sure to turn on the visibility of the items you expect to see. Its the lightbulb icon in the browser tree on the left.

 

And look inside the subfolders for items turned off as well. And check to see that the general screen settings are not hiding something, like the Display Settings/ object visibility checklist. Its bottom center, looks like a little computer monitor icon.

 

Finally check to make sure the root item in the browser tree on the left is active (little dot present right of the name as you hover over it, that can grey stuff out becuase it means you are working inside a subcomponent rather than the whole project. But in this case, you can usually still see stuff outside the active component.

 

Hope that helps some.
