Hello
How do I display explode lines automatically?
To add explode lines to an exploded view, use a Sketch with Explode Lines (a type of 3D sketch).
To insert a sketch with burst lines:
The Sketch with Explode Lines toolbar appears. Explode Line is enabled, and the Explode Line PropertyManager opens.
All lines of a sketch with explode lines with mixed line font and dashes.
The 3D Sketch Burst appears in ConfigurationManager under Sketch View.
Table of Contents
In this example, a burst line is added between an axis and a hole in a tree in exploded view.
In this example, a burst line in a sketch with explode lines passes through a component, so a dropout is added to pass around that component.

I agree, but I would like to display them on my drawing?
Your technique works very well but it seems to me that in the old versions of solidworks, it did it automatically.
Whereas here, you have to click on all the pieces.
Hello, to display them in the drawing, you go to VIEW and you display the sketches. Because in the end it's only a sketch.
Kind regards
nothing changes G.
In the exploded view of the assembly you should have the sketch called "3D Exploder1", right click on it and click on "Show".
I did it but nothing changes...
And still in the assembly, "display"; "sketch" is enabled?
In your assembly, when it is burst, do you see the line?
Yes in my assembly the "sketch" icon is validated.
yes I see the lines in my assembly
Ok so already the problem comes from the drawing. In the drawing options, which option do you have to check??? Personally, I have the options of the attached file.
Hello
To display a sketch in the MEP, select your view in the tree view (the view on which this sketch should appear, of course) and expand the content. You should see your sketch, right-click show. If it is not displayed after that, check with the displayed icon (the eye) that the sketch icon is checked. Normally you should have it displayed in your view.
I just put all your G parameter. but nothing changes.
A.Leblanc We don't see the sketch of the burst lines in the drawing tree.
Uh, there you managed to dry me. If you see your sketch in the assembly, if you put everywhere, see the sketches and it doesn't work, um, there must be a parameter that has been skipped. Are you in isometric uncut view?
And the worst thing is that out of the 20 lines I have on the assembly, I'm only 2 that appear.
but not all the others.
Hello
normally when you use the exploded view function in your assembly and you make a MEP, when you select the view (be careful the section view always depends on another view) you should have this:
Yes, I have that. A.Leblanc
Hello
Maybe a bug, have you tried a ctrl+Q on your drawing? Try closing your drawing and solidworks and restart solidworks to see if it changes anything.
Ok, see the attached video:
PS: the 3D sketch of exploded lines of sight is not included in the tree, it is available from the configurations. You can create a 3D sketch to define your explode lines in the assembly, and then when you use the "sketch with explode lines" feature, your 3D sketch is converted, but still available from your tree view.
Thanks to all, I found my burst lines were drawn in construction line when it should have been in full sketch line.
On the construction line, they can be seen in 3d but not in drawing.
