    Everyone,

    I am using Solidworks 2003 SP2.0.
    I cannot find a way to get Construction Geometery like construction
    circles to show up in "details" in a drawing. Like when you use a
    detail to view a piece of your drawing to 10X scale, none of the
    construction geometry will show up...

    I have the: View...Sketches turned on, as well...

    Thanks,

    Tim

  2. Unfortunately you have to show it in the parent view to get it to show up in
    the detail view.

    To expand on what Corey said . . . I think you'll have to go to the
    parent model, right-click on the Sketch that contains your construction
    geometry and then choose "Show Sketch". If the Sketch has more than
    just the construction geometry in it that you want to show you'll have
    to highlight each sketch element you DON'T want to show, right-click and
    choose "Hide". Otherwise you're relegated to recreating the
    construction geometry in the Drawing.
