Hello,
does anyone know how to view a saved display style in a drawing? I have an assembly with some compenents set to transparent and others set as shaded. I can't seem to find this style in a drawing. All I can do is an assembly that is either fully shaded or with lines (hidden, no hidden...)

What version of Pro/E are you using. Shaded views on drawings was added in WF3. I only have access to WF2 where I work, I was not able to do what you are asking for.

I am learning WF4. Shaded views are fine, but views with both transparent and shaded or line I cannot do...
 
Not having your version available, but remembering what I learned in using WF3. What you ask might be possible using the various display style, simp rep, and combo settings.

I think what I am looking for is how to choose my custom made 'style' view in the drawing. When I go to the DRAWING VIEW properties window, I can select my custom simplified rep, my exploded view, orientation, but I cannot find the style that I made with transparencies.

I have tried to use a combination state but even that does not show transparent components that I have in the assembly...
