I'm having a problem creating a basic 2D/3D symbol. Sometimes, I'll have no 2D representation of my symbol and my 2D drawing is merged into my 3D drawing. I've read through the guides and have made sure that I'm drawing all my 3D word in the correct views and the 2D work in Top/Plan. I then, will select both drawings from Top/Plan view and align them together. While still selected, I then I will create symbol. Sometimes it works, but most of the time it doesn't.
Does the stacking order matter? Does the object position in 3D matter? I've tried the following:
- Aligned both bottom axes to each other in 3D, then in Top/Plan aligned there centers.
- Aligned both top axes to each other in 3D, then in Top/Plan aligned there centers.
- Stacked the 2D object over the 3D object (Send to Front)
- Stacked the 3D object over the 2D.
Basically my 2D is carrying over to my 3D object and I can not figure out why...
