Hide part from partlist 2

[JJL79]

Is there any way of making a part not show up in the partlist in a drawing?

Im using NX 6.0

Make it "reference only". Select it in the ANT, right click properties, and check the "ref only" box.

You can also right click the parts list & Edit Levels and manually remove components in the navigator or the display.

You can also add the following special
attributes to a component to automatically prevent the components from being added to a parts list.

PLIST_IGNORE_MEMBER - If this attribute exists on a component, then that component is excluded by all parts lists.

PLIST_IGNORE_SUBASSEMBLY - If this attribute exists on a component, then that component and all of its descendents is excluded by all parts lists.

Thank you both for your help.

namdaci45, i have encountered other situations where attributes on components needs to be added or modified to make drawings appear as desired. My question is where can i find all these attributes as they often do not appear as default attributes on components?

There's no definitive list that I've seen. I normally just search through help for attributes as I remember there's an attribute just never remember what it's called.

Note that in the next full release of NX whenever you create an assembly all of these so-called Component Specific attributes which are used to control various behaviors will automatically be assigned to the Components in the Assembly file, but in what will be referred to as an 'Unset' state. All that you will have to do to activate any of these system generated attributes will be to 'Set' (i.e. make active) the attribute status.

Also note that if the component of interest appears more than once in the assembly, you will also have an option to 'Set' the status of these attributes for either a single occurance of the component or all of them in one action.
