[Jo...] Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Hello! Programming on a new model that's very similar to it's predecessor. Brought in new model and removed old. Base alignments are the same after rotating model to match coordinates system. As I'm adding the new features and deleting some of the old, I'm noticing that my yellow paths I create in strategy (circle on plane, polylines, etc..) are not showing up on model... at all. The features are in the correct x,y,z positions. Instead I'm getting the little gray shaded planes. Is there something turned off? I looked at some setting of completely different programs and I seem to have everything turned on. FYI - Old model and program didn't have this issue. New model on it's own (not brought into old program) doesn't have this issue. I'm stumped. Did quite a bit of work already and would hate to start from scratch. Wondering if anyone had any ideas? Thanks! Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/12088-yellow-paths-not-showing-on-model/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
[No...] Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Are you sure the paths are not showing or are they just obscured by the gray surfaces? These gray elements are normal behavior when you load a new model in an existing program. It happens because all existing features lose their CAD binding. You can turn them off somewhere in the CAD settings (under "Geometry"). There's a procedure (CAD comparison) to restore the CAD bindings, but it's usually not worth the effort.

[Jo...] Posted September 8, 2021 Author Share Posted September 8, 2021 Thanks Norbert. Not under the planes. I mad them small (2x2mm) and also turned on wireframe only to look at the holes too. The holes don't show up under strategy either, but do when you click on them in the feature list. Planes just gray shaded. Just some snafu. I rebooted once or twice and restarted software. 🙁 Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/12088-yellow-paths-not-showing-on-model/#findComment-60372 Share on other sites More sharing options...

[To...] Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Open feature. Right-click in CAD window. Is Show Nominal Points checked? If not, click Show Nominal Points. Sorry Dane. I saw your post but did not click the link....DOH!

[Jo...] Posted September 8, 2021 Author Share Posted September 8, 2021 Good grief. The show nominal points was not checked for some reason. Had to be a click happy uncheck as I would never turn this off. Ugh!
