Hiding and Showing Surfaces in a Virtual Assembly with SmarTeam?

Hi all,

We are using SW2020 SP4.0 and SMARTEAM® - Editor V5-6R2020 Service Pack 6.

Ok I made a bunch or Wireway virtual assemblies and added a surface of the doors open so I can see interferences.

All the files were saved/released with the Surface hidden (Not Shown) and in SMARTEAM you view a preview they appear as such.

I then in a checked out assembly and turned the surfaces to “Shown” did my checks and then proceeded to hide them all and checked in my assembly.

Now when I recheck the assembly file out, half the wireway modes have the surface file shown?

So how is my assembly file driving this change and how do I correct it or do I have to revise all these models and re-check-in/release them or is there a better way?

Regards,

Jim
