    Texture Display in drawing views

    Thanks Scott. From your message, I am assuming that you can do it in SW06. It seems like it would only make sense that you could show the texture in the drawing if they bothered to put it in the modeling functionality. I guess I will just cross hatch the area and callout the material with a...

    Can somebody help? I am trying to show a drawing view of an assembly that includes a sheet of expanded metal mesh. I represented the mesh with a SW standard texture that I placed on the two surfaces of the sheet metal part in the model. How can I show the texture in my detailed drawing views...

I am using the following selection: Annotation, Model Items, and then under the drop down: "Import from:", I have selected entire model, as...

    Annotations for stock parts (split bodies)

    I am having no luck showing dimensions for stock parts that appear in assemblies on drawings. Even features that are added to the stock parts, such as holes, will not show their dims. The assembly is made from several stock parts that were created from splitting a part into an assembly. I am...
