So far I've found that adding a string containing ".designator" to a mechanical layer to each component will allow the production of an assembly drawing.
I have two questions regarding this:
First, is there a way to show or hide these designators on either the top or bottom layer, ie, show only the assembly designators for those components who reside on the top layer, hide the assembly designators for those components who reside on the bottom layer?
Second, is there a way to force Altium to evaluate the string in the normal view, so it actually shows the designator (say C1) instead of ".designator"?
Basically, I end up with this, and it sucks
Thanks a lot for anyone's help.
