Solids other than part are displayed as wireframe during simulation

Hello,

 

For starters, I know this isn't an excellent way to hold this part but sometimes you have to work quick and dirty.

 

I'm not sure if this is an update or if I mistakenly changed a setting without realizing it. It's not a problem necessarily more so a nuisance, but I noticed that my vise is now being displayed as wireframe when I run a simulation when previously it would display it as a normal solid like it typically shows in the design workspace. When I exit the simulation the vise returns to it's normal solid state. Anybody experience anything similar?

 

Thanks

Huh, can't say as I have. Is it an inserted model?

Could you share your file, per chance? If not, could you also share a photo of the Design workspace?

Attached screenshots of both my design workspace, and my manufacturing workspace when I am not in the simulation. I usually insert my vise from a separate file so it is inserted as a component, where my original part model is just a body. This has never been an issue in the past though and I've been programming parts this way for years. I assumed it was part of a recent update or something I missed.

 

Thanks for the reply!

Oh...The Opacity slider in Simulate appears to be less than 100%

Thank you! That was the fix. I never noticed that option before.

 

Enjoy your weekend!
