Naming a solid body in the workpart, will not show up when the part is made the displayed part.
1. Open assembly.
2. Make a component the work part.
3. Select the solid body of the work part, 'MouseButton3-->Properties'.
4. On the 'General' tab, give the solid body a name. OK.
5. Save the work part and make the assembly the work part again.
6. Make the same component the displayed part.
7. Select the same solid body of the displayed part, 'MouseButton3-->Properties'.
8. On the 'General' tab, notice there is no name.
The 'Name' field is empty. Why didn't the name stay when it was applied when it was the work part?
Solution
At step 4 above, toggle ON 'Apply to Work Part'. Then the solid body name will stay and show even when this part is the displayed part.
