NO TRIAD MANIPULATOR

HI, I am using chrome on mac and made an assembly, but when I select the part, no triad manipulator comes up… anyone know a solution and could share? Thanks :)

That's not an assembly 😀
At the bottom you'll see a tab labelled "Assembly 1" - go there, press the "insert" button at the top and add your part.
@NeilCooke
Is there an option to hide the triad manipulator in assemblies? Sometimes when items are selected for a screenshot, triad manipulator shows up, is there an option to turn it off?
@awais_yousaf132 if you temporarily "fix" a part/subassembly and then select from the instance list, the triad won't show.
@NeilCooke it doesn't show on parts in assembly which are explicitly fixed, however, if parts are mated or grouped to a "fixed" part in the assembly, it still shows on those mated/grouped parts. They only time it doesn't show is when every single part is explicitly "Fixed" in the assembly
