Problem when inserting model items in drawings.

Discussion in 'SolidWorks' started by Frederik Daniel Hjort, Dec 5, 2003.

  1. Hello all,

    I seem to have a problem when inserting model items into my drawings.
    Some of the dimensions will display correctly while others appear to
    be fixed to some none-existent points in thin air. These dangling
    dimensions won't snap to the model properly, and i often cannot shift
    them to other wiews.
    Have anyone other than me encountered this problem?
    I am running Solidworks 2004 SP1.

    Best regards,
    Frederik Daniel Hjort

  2. I've seen this on sheet metal parts, starting with SW98+, as I recall. I
    haven't checked recently to see if it still behaves the same. I don't
    remember seeing it on other types of parts.

    If it is a section view, you may find that you need to create the section on
    the same plane that the original part sketch was created on.
