Generating 2D Components for Hybrid Objects

[Adam@ssqdesign]

Hi there

 

After watching a tut on Youtube and successfully generating 2D Components for Hybrid Objects, wanted to repeat this with another hybrid object.

It seems that the option to 'Generate 2D from 3D component' after right-clicking is not longer an option (not greyed out but not even listed).

 

How do I go about resolving this?

I have VWX2020 fundamentals and spotlight.

 

Looking forward to a response.

Hi @Adam@ssqdesign,

 

Are you in a 2D component or a 3D component when you right-click?  The option is only available while in a 2D component.

Hi there Matt

 

I was in 3D component.

Thanks for your help!

This option really should be available in the 3d component. Switching components is a extra unnecessary step. You're almost always going to initially generate a 2d component automatically from a symbol that only has a 3d component and so when you go to edit the symbol by double clicking you'll always end up in the 3d component first.

 

Off to wishlist this!
