Summary


Details

In this example, I have a Solid Edge assembly and I go into Occurrence Properties and set one of my parts (Body01.par) to ‘No’ in Reports/Parts List.


I then create a drawing of the assembly, place a Drawing View, and define a Parts List.  As expected Body01 does not appear in the Parts List.


I then go back to the assembly, go to the Occurrence Properties, change the Reports/Parts List setting from 'No' to 'Yes' and change the Drawing Views option for the same part from 'Yes' to 'No'.


I save the assembly, return to the drawing and update the Drawing Views.

Body01 is not included in the Drawing View, as expected.  However, it is also excluded from the Parts List - I would expect to see this listed.


Solution

This is working as designed.  Whilst you can remove an item from the Parts List independently, when you remove an Item from a Drawing View, you are effectively removing all references on the drawing, including the Parts List.
