    Activate Deactivate Feature in Design Table

    Does anyone believe that Managed Representations may work for our friend here? It's a little over the top for a newbie but what the heck.

    View Orientation

    I'm not at a pc with CATIA so I can't be sure about what the exact steps are. I do know what you did, though. On the View toolbar there is an icon for changing the perspective. By default it is on Iso. If you click on it, you'll be able to see the other perspectives (Left, Right, Top, etc.)...

    Dimensions off of Product FT&A plane

    Catia V5 Drawing

    robcp, There are several ways to move files from one directory to another. You actually picked one of the worst ways, using Windows, and that is why you're having these problems. :-) I'll let someone else give you the solution to your current problem. In the meanwhile, when you need to move...

    Assembly designer annotations on drawing

    Azrael, This is a direct quote from the Dassault documentation entitled Creating a View from 3D (found under the Generative Drafting topic. It describes the same problem you have for a Datum B that has a red X overlaid on top of it. It is my suggestion that you read this topic and take from...

    Assembly designer annotations on drawing

    Azrael, I have just a few ideas you might want to try. First, try going to the view's Properies and check the 3D Wireframe and Is always visible options under the View tab. This displays the space geometry in the view. Second, uncheck Enable occlusion culling in either the view's Properties...
