Solid not displaying right in drawing.
Solid not displaying right in drawing.
(OP)
I made a solid, put a bunch of holes on it, then put it on a drawing but the outline is not showing. only the holes.
Any idea what could be causing this? Nothing special about this part, just a bunch of extrudes and cuts.

Did you drag and drop only the hole features into the dwg?

Has the outline Line Format colour been changed, or somehow been hidden?

Subwoofer: I havent noticed this with cosmetic threads but maybe because I dont require cosmetic threads in drawings.

Try this: FAQ559-1058: How do I set the Software OpenGL option in SW and turn the Hardware Acceleration to "None"?

This is a long shot...Activate the view with the problem...in the line format toolbar toggle the color display mode...see if this fixes the problem.
