Revolve Feature not showing in drawing

richie_trent

Hi,

I am wondering why my revolve feature on a part will not show up in the drawing.  Any ideas?

I would suspect that your revolve is a surface in which won't display on a drawing.

@richie_trent, In your part modelling feature tree it showing 7 parts but in model space you can see 8 parts. I feel Revolve 1 you created by selecting surface option in revolve. Therefore there may be chances that 8th part is surface one and situated under "surfaces" in model tree. At this stage surface not able to show in drawing.Surely you can raise improvement request for this. In near future we hope that this facility will be provided by Onshape.
Workaround: 1) Select solid option in revolve 1. Therefore revolve part appear as part. Then you can see this part also in drawing.
2) Add small thickness (you can put minimum upto 0.0001 mm) to revolve surface part with the halp of thicken option and then it appeared as a solid part. But in complicated surfaces this is tricky and unreliable.
