Question

Dimensions missing in Drawing when using Part-Level Simplified Rep within an Assembly-Level Simplifi

Problem Description:
I am having trouble displaying part-level dimensions in a drawing view when both the part and the assembly are in Simplified Representations.
  • What works:
    • Dimensions show correctly in the standalone Part model (both Master and Simplified Reps).
    • Dimensions show correctly in the Assembly drawing if the view is set to the Master Representation.
  • The Issue:
    • When I switch the Assembly drawing view to a Simplified Representation, the part-level dimensions disappear.
    • I want to display the part in its own "Simplified" state (to show specific geometry/features) within an assembly-level view, but Creo seems to lose the feature references required for the dimensions once the assembly "simplifies" that component.
Goal:
I need to show the simplified version of the part in an assembly drawing view without losing the ability to show model annotations/dimensions for that part.
