I have a part in an assembly that is composed of a patterned feature. I supressed the pattern command for this feature in the Part Navigator, and expected to see just the original instance of the feature. However, the full pattern still displayed. It was only when I made the part the "Displayed Part" that it showed the with the supressed pattern. If I then "Display Parent" (the assembly), it goes back to showing the part with the patterned feature (even though it's suppressed).
So why is this happening? Why is the part display not updating in the assembly?
Thanks for the help.
