Dividing Parts

[ptranberg]

I was just testing the new Parts tool in RAC 2012.
In a floor plan creating Parts from a floor. Then the Floor disapears, that's ok, but the Parts did not show up. So I had to change the View Range (View Depth) to see bellow the current Level. Now I can see the upper part created from the floor.

Anyone experiencing the same, is it supposed to do like that?

Peter, this from Revet Clinic might help explain.

Thanks Mark
So my approach was ADSK intended :-)

The parts tool should be something that can be phased.

You can assign parts to different phases. By default the part takes on the phasing properties of the parent object but there is a checkbox control that allows you to specifically assign a phase to a part.
