Editing Routes

(OP)
I have been having problems editing my pipe routes, then they disappear. I am running SW2006. I have been having to delete the routes and start over. Is there any way to solve this problem? I have tried the rebuild and cntl+q. Any help would be appreciated.

RE: Editing Routes

Are you using SW Router or 3D Sketches?

RE: Editing Routes

I am not sure. I have been selecting the connection point, right clicking, then selecting start route. When it is done, it shows up as a 3d sketch under the route feature.

RE: Editing Routes

When you mouse over where the route lines should be, do they appear temporarily ... probably in red?

cheers

RE: Editing Routes

If you are using SW Router, I'm not much help. If you are using a 3D Sketch, you can select the spline/line and move the points.

RE: Editing Routes

When my cursor goes over the pipes, it does not show anything. If I go over the assembly or route in the feature tree, it shows the lines in red.

RE: Editing Routes

What video card and driver are you using?

If the lines show red when mousing over, but you cannot see them in the graphics area, then it is probably a video card/driver problem. The fact that they go red means they are actually there, but invisible.

cheers

RE: Editing Routes

That could be possible. Do you think if I print it out it will show? I tried printing it, still no show if that matters.
