In the Layers Window in IsoDraw CADprocess 7.3, how do I display a list of entities, such as curves, text, etc., that reside on each layer?

You need to open the objects layer also.

Thank you Bryon for your quick response. I really appreciate it.
I have another question. When I view the Objects window, I noticed that most of my elements aren't listed. Only elements that are grouped together are displayed as Group.
None of my elements have names. Is there a way to have elements automatically named?
Thank you!

I think it depends on the information in the imported file. We use solid edge to convert the file to a jt. Then we use the place command in IsoDraw to import the file. It seems to keep all the part numbers doing it this way.

Thank you Bryon.
I will try other methods of importing graphics to see if that makes a difference. The 3D CAD model is in NX10 (Unigraphics) and a dxf file was exported from a 2D view from the drawing. I opened the dxf file with IsoDraw and copy/pasted it into my IsoDraw file. Apparently, this method does not bring any associated information with it. I have not had much experience with manipulating the 3D CAD model in IsoDraw, but I am in the process of learning how that works along with creating exploded views in IsoDraw from the CAD model. Currently, I am creating my exploded views in NX10 and exporting the 2D dxf into IsoDraw.
Thanks again for your help!

The PTC university for IsoDraw is pretty good for getting the hang of the program. Also make sure to place your files onto the IsoDraw file. this will maintain a link to the original file. If it updates then your illustration should update also.
