I orbited it be isometric and was going to use the Make Ortho View plugin. I have been reading Tim's posts about dimensioning; that is why I have been trying to use the x-ray view. Jerry

Dave, Thank You for your reply, I will try this as I work on it this evening. I based this design on Lon Schleining's Essential Workbench article in FWW. I thought about just chamfering the feet but thought that rounded would look a bit better. BTW, I noticed after posting that my exploded view scene had lost the base. I think I inadvertently deleted something. Jerry

Hi, I have been following this forum for quite a while now; this is my first post. I also follow the Fine Woodworking DCB Blog with Dave and Tim. I am using SU Pro 7.1. I am designing a woodworking bench and wanted to share it and also have a question. I still have scenes of the various components to add in addition to the trestle foot. My question: I want to make certain scenes in x-ray and leave others in the normal shaded view. I have tried various ways to update the scenes and haven't been able to figure this one out. This is a great forum along with the FWW Blog. Any additional suggestions on my model would be welcome. Thank You.

Jerry
