Unknown symbol/function

We are trying to figure out why there is a different "symbol" for the "Screw_No12x2_HWH_SeldDrilling:60" on the top of the tree than the normal symbol for the screws in the bottom of the tree and what is means??

 

iProperties are the same between the two.

 

When "screw" is placed in the drawing, it shows as a "normal" .ipt. This is in an older drawing that we are checking/ revising and was created by someone that no longer work with us.

That means model is surface.  Not solid.

But "why/how" did it get as such??

We have tried to "replace" them (Component-Replace All), but they still show up as shown??

There is only one file. iProperties on both the "surface" part and the '.ipt" show the same path.

Can you Attach an assembly file *.iam that references the file as both a surface and as a solid. (That is all that is needed - the iam and the ipt, nothing proprietary is needed.) Somehow you are deriving/referencing as a composite surface body.

You refer to a "drawing" but you show either a part or an assembly (it is not clear to me from you image which it is - I assume an assembly).
