Gone transparent

[dj4244]

Don't know what I did or what to do. All of a suddend my model is transparent (somewhat like a wireframe). I've pused all the screen buttons even gone out of model and back in no help.

What do you mean by "transparent (somewhat like a wireframe)."
I assume it appears to have some colouring to it & also that by "screen buttons" you mean the View Toolbar icons. If so, RMB on the part & click Properties > Advanced and check your Transparency settings. I don't know how or why it would suddenly change, but it's worth a look.

I sounds like you are working on an assy. If so are you editing one of your parts? That will make the rest of your model appear transparent.

If your in an assembly and your editing a part, there is an option the Tools\Options\System options\Display/Selection - Look under "Assembly transparency for incontext edit" If you change that "Opaque assembly" your parts won't go transparent.

I inadvertantly entered edit mode on one of the parts in my Assy. What's an easy way to get out of that.

Right click in the middle of the graphics window and choose Edit Assembly.

There is an Icon on your assembly toolbar that would be pushed in. if your editing a part in the assembly. Just push it again and it pops out. then your out of edit part mode.
