Hidden exploded items showing in drawings but not in assembly?

henry_feldmanhenry_feldman Member Posts: 135 EDU

I have an extra screw apparently in my assembly's exploded view, and it is hidden on the assembly (good) as you can see:

However in my drawing with that view inserted the screw shows back up?

    Have you updated the drawing?

    Do you need/want the extra screw in the assembly? Hide/show is not a great way to manage a BOM.

    Agree with @S1mon, however, if you need the screw for some reason and just want it hidden in the drawing, you will need to look into display states.
