Hi all I have a problem when I want to open an assembly on Composer, when I drag the assembly into composer there is a load and then the assembly does not appear, I see the creation tree but everything is unchecked and I can't check anything. The assembly has a lot of parts and it opens in "Complex Assembly Mode" on Solidworks, is there a link? (Attached is the photo of Composer)
Solidworks had asked us to uncheck, in options/assemblies:
Use Complex Assembly Mode
Use large design management
Automatically load lightweight parts
We manage to open sub-assemblies or unique parts, but not large assemblies. The most surprising thing is that a subset that you manage to open in composer will not be visible inside a large assembly.
Personally, I also had similar problems with elements of my assemblies that appeared in the creation tree but not in the viewport and were not checkable in the creation tree.
By searching the internet and spending 1 week testing different configurations and import solutions, it turns out that the parts required these boxes (see PJ) to be checked!
It's silly because my parts in question are nothing special, but hey, it solved my problem without causing me any more.
I encountered the same problem as you on large assemblies, I found a solution and for my part it works. On SW, you have to uncheck the use of the complex assembly mode in "System Options - Assemblies".
Since the import on SW Composer is done correctly, no more display errors.
I see that several of you mention the fact that opening the file in light mode is a problem. On the other hand, I can save my assembly in solved mode and deactivate the complex assembly mode, it still opens in light mode.
