Tangent Lines Removed in Part
Tangent Lines Removed in Part
(OP)
I normally have "Shaded" and "Display HLR Edges in Shaded Mode" selected when I draw my parts. This normally works best for me, except when I want to print something without the tangent edges. I found a work around. I make a drawing, and then print out two pages to a pdf file. One as a wire frame with hidden lines removed (without tangent edges), and one with the shaded view (no lines at all). I then copy and past the lines on top of the shaded view in acrobat. This creates am outlined shaded image without the tangent lines. Is there a way to get the same end result in Solidworks? The most desirable solution would be an HLR mode without tangent lines. Thank You, I hope I am clear enough.






RE: Tangent Lines Removed in Part
Is it possible to set your line weights such that tangent lines don't show? Zero thickness or something similar? I haven't tried, but that might be a lead that would pay off.
