I cannot seem to creat a drawing vew properly here???

There is one profile extrusion that will not for the life of me change to just the lines it has to be the shaded withoug lines display state for only one part? Funny thing is the part is an exact duplicate of the one on the other side of the tube so why is that one not friggin blody green too?



My options-Color is set to use the default line color in edges with shaing mode (black) in options for all assemblies and parts



There is only one display state in the main assembly, sub assembly and part... and they all show shaded with lines...



So why is the fridding part and only one of two showing shaded without edges.....



GGGAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!



For as much as I love this program these little gremlins come at the worst time..


Disgrutled... Bah Humbug! Ben


Further to this is I flipped the display state of one part to edged only in the assembly, went to the drawing and nouthing flipped it back to shaded with edges and the drwaign view now shows the other part like the first, shaded? And to top it all off it wont change back. What the hell?

seems to have corrected my last posts problem but then turned the fisrt part problem to a sub assembly problem

We had sort of the same problem with castings and tangent edges hidden, everything dissapeared. The work around we found (SW2005 SP3) for the drawing was to reduce the Wireframe and High Quality HLR/HLV resolution in the Document Properties/Image Quality screen. Hope this helps
