Lines not appearing in some drawings
Lines not appearing in some drawings
(OP)
Hi there,
I've got a problem using SW 2006 SP4.1. I have one relatively large assembly that I am trying to make a drawing of. I can view the assembly in the 'lines only' styles. And the 'rendered without outlines' style. But I wish to show the assembly in the 'rendered with outlines' style. The trouble is, the lines do not appear, it remains the same as the 'rendered without outlines' style.
This does not happen if i try to draw the individual parts outside of the assembly. Is there any setting or something simple I have overlooked?
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
Many thanks
Jack

Go to Tools > Options > System Options > Assemblies and deselect Do not display edges in shaded mode.

This has really got me stumped.

You may be able to get the desired result by working with the default display state of the components as specified within the assembly. If you are still having trouble, you may want to create a display state in the assembly specifically for the drawing view. That should give you a little more control and insulate you from changes in the default display state which commonly occur while working with an assembly.
