SolidEdge Hidden Edge Style
SolidEdge Hidden Edge Style
(OP)
Hi,
I'm having trouble with my SolidEdge Hidden Edge Style since re-installing. I am using v18 and have service pack 12.03 which is the the latest I have access to.
I have a drawing view in a draft and I click it's properties to hide the hidden lines. The trouble is that when I click ok on the dialog box nothing happens. When I return to the properties box, the Hidden Edge check box is still ticked even though I cleared it last time.
I've done it this way for years without any problems however now there seems to be a subtle difference. When I click the tickbox once, the tick goes to a shaded square. Click a second time and it clears - it has never done this before. If the checkbox is ticked and you click, it clears. If it is clear and you click it ticks; never this intermediate step.
The net result is that I cannot hide any hidden detail :(
I have installed this on countless machines over the years and never had this issue once.



Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

RE: SolidEdge Hidden Edge Style
We are still runing V19 but on newer windows 7 PC's. There are a number of small glitches.
For similar to you I found having the actual body selected seemed to fix it.

RE: SolidEdge Hidden Edge Style
Having the body selected is quite strange....but it does appear to work!!
Odd, but if that is what I need to do then so beit.
Thanks for the suggestion. I've only tried it on one drawing so I'll give it a go as I need to throughout the day. No reason why it shouldn't work though.

I think the first version certified for W7 was ST3.
You should really be running it on XP Pro.
