Model is transparent in manufacturing mode

Hello,

 

I'm learning Fusion 360 and have modeled a part which will ultimately be 3d printed.  I'm trying out the Additive manufacturing features for generating supports, but my model is transparent and I can't figure out why.  It looks fine in design mode.  I've confirmed that the display settings -> visual style is set to Shaded with visible edges only.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Thanks,

Michael

Ah ok. The issue was with your section view in the manufacture workspace. Just disable it:

A section view you create in one workspace will not effect models in another workspace. Looks like you turned your section view off in the Design workspace but forgot to turn off the separate section view your created in the Manufacture workspace.

That did it! Thank you so much. I'm really liking Fusion 360 so far and my son will be happy to have his axle fixed.
