LOD in PARTS

[DWhiteley]

There's been a lot of talk about this in the past.

Here's my take on a different idea.

Enable the supression/Unsuppresion of solids in multi-body parts.

Support this when inserting into an assembly or DWG.

This would help for "green on" models where the part contains both the original forged/cast part and the machining detail for example.

Hi DWhiteley,

Please see this link for a previously sumbitted idea on this topic:

Thanks for the Kudos guys, but it looks like this can all be done already!

View reps in parts together with multi-body parts enable you to create drawings of parts such as forged or cast components where you wish to show a drawing of both the pre-machined and post-machined part.

Marking as solved as Dave discovered a workaround for his request.
