Phantom lines around modified display objects in drawings

Post by Tim Kulin »

If I take a display cube to the part editor and modify it, when I take it to the line drawing editor, I see an outline of the original cube plus the new shape. Any way to get rid of these?

I'm not sure I know the answer to that question. It's a desktop, and I did have to choose a video card when I specified the system with Dell.

Tim,

Have you tried adjusting the Line Enhancement in the Line Drawing Editor?

Save your cube as an assemble and post it so we can see if it happens on other machines.

I've had this "problem" since the beginging. Never bothered me. But that trick got rid of them. :mrgreen:
