Shaded Drafting

Shaded Drafting

Shaded Drafting

(OP)
When creating a drawing - is it possible to
make the views shaded instead of wireframe?

I would think you can but i cant find any settings to do it.

RE: Shaded Drafting

FearFactorz,
   Actually, no... not that I know of.  You can however, add a saved image to your drawing sheet for clarification, but it won't print/plot out.  <insert, image, ...>.  I haven't played around with this functionality much, so naturally I reserve the right to be completely wrong.  smile

CAD should pay for itself, shouldn't it?

RE: Shaded Drafting

Starting with NX3, you can add a raster image to your drawing and it WILL plot IF you have your customer defaults set to plot raster images.  However, you still cannot add a fully shaded view of your model to the drawing it has to be an image.
