I am unable to do anything with my offset line features that i have created. "about 20 of them" they will not group together. anyone know of a way to help me clean up the model tree?

WELL THAT HALF WAY WORKS MY PROB IS I AM CONSTANTLY EDITING DIMENSIONS IN THE ASSEMBLY SO THE ABILITY TO SEE THEM GO AWAY NOW BUT I FOUND A WAY THAT IF I SUPPRESS THEN TURN OF SUPPRESED ITEMS THEY GO AWAY BUT STILL NOT HAPPY WITH THAT BC I HAVE MULTIPLE VERSIONS OF BOLTS IE STUDS THAT I NEED TO SWAP OUT SO IM STILL GOING BACK IN AND TURNING ON AND OFF

Hi,


Are the offset lines atset intervals? If so, why not use the pattern function to eliminate the multiple lines.

SO MY PROB IS I CANNOT PATTERN THESE I DO NOT WANT TO SEE ALL THE FEATURES IN THE MODEL TREE I CANNOT GROUP THEM IF I SUPPRESS THEM AND THEN TURN SUPRESSED FEATURES OFF I DONT SEE SOME OF MY PARTS THAT I MAY NEED TO TURN ON LATER.


ANY NEW IDEAS??
 
Have you tried to use the Component Operations (orFeature Operations)in the Edit menu to group them? I don't know if it will work, but it's a possibility.
