Part/Assembly tangent edge display is resetting after...

Nov 29, 2006 4 Replies

Here's a new one:



Just upgraded to 2007 sp2.0 from 2006 sp4.0. Part/Assembly tangent edge display is resetting after opening/editing a drawing. I set the tangent edge display to "removed" and it keeps switching to "as Visible" after being in a drawing. Another crazy thing is that the lines shown are show "as Phantom". Tried this with existing and new parts same result.



Can someone else try this:



-Open System Options



-Select Display/Selection



-Set tangent edge was changed to "Removed"



-Create a new part (a cylinder)



-Ssave



-Make new drawing



-drag views into drawing



-Open System Options



-Select Display/Selection



-is tangent edge changed to "as Visible"?



Thanks, DT



Yes, good catch. I see that too.

You've reported this somewhere other than the newsgroup, right?

By the way, how can you stand working with tangent edges removed? That drives me nuts! I work with phantom tangent edges.

Yes, I reported it to our VAR.

I usually have the phantom tangent edges turned on but I'm working with some Bosch Aluminum framing (very cool stuff, engineers erector set,

) with losts of radii and all the lines were drive me crazy!

Not on mine SW2007 SP2.0. I just tried it and it's still on Removed. I've never noticed that one turning itself on.

I did figure out a clue though in that it appears to be a function of the setting for Tools/Options/Drawings/Display Style in that I have mine set to Tangent edges in new views Removed. If I change that setting to Visible or Use font, I see what you are seeing.

It looks like the problem has to do with the new "View Palette" when creating a new drawing. If I create a part then go, file new, drawing nothing gets changed.
