Component/Group Editing
-
Hi All - I have a question and I hope you all (except me!) know the answer
When I edit a group or a component, the rest of the SkUp model gets faded away comletely. Usually this automatic is most welcome for me. Sometimes, however, I would prefer that no fading happens but everything remains visible without any hiding at all. Is this possible?
What ever I adjust in the Component/Group Editing window, everything else will be completely faded away...

You should be able to slide the controls over to Darker.
What I do is set up a short cut Alt+H to toggle the hide check box

Thanks Garry - finally after restarting SU it worked. Now all the geometry remains visible
Often I use a pictures (jpg...) as drawing templates, these will continue to be faded - is there also a way to prevent used pictures from fading away somehow?
To make a shortcut for this function is a good idea, I will take over this tip. -
How are you importing the image to draw over?
Let me guess. You import it as an image, right click on it and explode it and then you make a group or component, right? Just import it as an image. Don't explode it. Exploding it turns the image into a material which will get grayed out when you have a component or group open for editing. If you leave it as an image, it won't get grayed out.
