new derived parts grayed out

Luigi_ · April 3, 2012, 15:29

Sometimes when I go to create a new derived part, the option for probe or section is grayed out. I read in the user's guide how their are conditions that must be met for the in-place dialog to work, but I can't seem to find any rhyme or reason why sometimes the complete option to create a new derived part is grayed out...

Any tips! thanks

Do you have a scene open when you try to make it? I get weird results sometimes if I have no scenes open and I try to make a derrived part.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I tried it with scenes open and closed. I'm really not sure what the problem was, because it is working now.
