model tree displays incorrect model |
|
|
Guys,
rel 2001. I have a drawing which uses multiple models, an assembly and some
parts. No matter which model I select to be current, the model tree always
displays the model of the last view entered on the drawing, which happens to
be a part. Is this intended functionality? How can I get it to show the
assembly model tree?
Also, the sheet number box has become greyed-out so I cannot select which
sheet I want to be in, I have to go into Menu/Sheets/Set current. Any ideas
why?
Dave

Guy Lagiere came up with: View, Model Tree Setup, Switch View and it worked
fine.
Restarting ProE seems to have cleared the greyed out sheet number too. I
suspect an open mapkey causes it.

I used to get this problem with greyed out sheet number in 2001. Usually,
clicking on the 'Make Window Current' button in the toolbar cleared that and
made the sheet number active again.
Never worked with multiple-model drawings in 2001. In Wildfire the tree
seems to periodically switch to other model than the one it was previously
pointed to, all by itself. In WF all you need to do is right-click on one of
the views of the model you want to see in the tree and choose 'Show Model in
Tree' (or something like that - I don't have Pro/E in front of me right now)
from the RMB menu.

What you're looking for is in the under "View" in you drawing menu.
Got to Views...Dwg Models...Set Model. This allows to set which model
(in a multi-model drawing) you are creating views for. Whichever is
current will display at the bottom of you screen. You can also use
this area of the menu to add and delete other models from the drawing.
The sheet control at the top greys out if you're in the middle of a
command. Making the window current clears everything and you should
see page numbers (as long as you have more than one). An alternative
to this (if you want to switch sheets) is to use the Next and Previous
command under the Sheets menu.

No, that doesn't change the model displayed in the model tree. It seems the
model tree can display a different model to the one listed at the bottom of
the screen.
As earlier answers said, you have to go into the model tree, and select
Tree/Switch view, and click on a view which contains the model you want to
display in the tree.
I would prefer it to work the way you said, but it doesn't.

Making the current window active doesn't clear it for me. I suspect there is
a faulty mapkey that isn't closing down properly. I have to use the menu
manager to switch sheets.
