PARAMETERS SHOWING IN XREF

Hallo,
I have a file with an xref using a dynamic component.

Strangely the parameter dimension of these components pops up in a very chaotic manner and huge when used as xref.
In the original file its not.
What am I doing wrong ? how can I fix this?

Below image to better explain.

Thanks in advance

  • I think you need to open the dynamic component and then use DCDISPLAY to Hide All the dimensional constraints. If you need to hide geometric constraints use CONSTRAINTBAR.

    Hallo

    thanks for the feedback. I tried using this command inside the original file and inside the Xref, but the constraint is already hidden.
    What is strange is that all constrainst in the original file are already hidden and they ONLY pop up when the file is used as xref in another file. see the image below.

    Is this correct ?

    thanks

  • Hallo

    any feedback on this ? still happening and makes files unusable.
    we cannot use any xref when parameters are showing like this.

    PLS can you advise ?

    Try this:

    1. Open the component file and save it.
    2. Open the file the component has been inserted in and save that file as well.
    3. Open the xref: the problem should now be solved.

    Alternatively you can freeze the hidden layer *ADSK_CONSTRAINTS these dimension are on with the _-Layer command:

    : -LA
    Layer [? to list/New layer/Make new current layer/Set layer as current/Color/Linetype/LineWeight/TRansparency/MATerial/Plot/stAte/turn layer ON/turn layer OFf/Freeze/Thaw/LOck/Unlock]:f
    Layer(s) to Freeze: *ADSK_CONSTRAINTS
    Layer [? to list/New layer/Make new current layer/Set layer as current/Color/Linetype/LineWeight/TRansparency/MATerial/Plot/stAte/turn layer ON/turn layer OFf/Freeze/Thaw/LOck/Unlock]:
    

    Actually we are freezing all layers that have ADSK_CONSTRAINTS in the name here, so we are also freezing all xref dependent layers.
