Toggling Visibility of CAD Geometry
Models can be shown with three visibility modes: show only solid bodies, show all, or show invalid only.
Solid bodies are parts that have a volume. These are indicated with a blue icon in the Tree View in the left pane of the CAD toolbox window.
Invalid parts, or sheets, are parts with zero volume. These are indicated with a red icon in the Tree View.
To switch between geometry modes, do any of the following:
From the toolbar, select Show Geometry to switch between the three modes:
All ( )
Only Invalid ( )
Only Solid Bodies ( )
Right-click on the CAD Workspace background, select Show Mode, and then select the desired mode.
All
Only Invalid
Only Solid Bodies
Note: This option is disabled if there are no sheets in the CAD model.
