Alternative Position View

Alternative Position View

Alternative Position View

(OP)
When I added an alternative position view to one of the 4 shaded views in my drawing the line font for all visible edges in all of the views changed from solid to phantom. This change occurs both on the screen and on a hard copy of the drawing. Hiding the alternative view restores the visible edge line font to solid. Is this a known bug? The outline of the alternative positioned components are shown in a phantom line font, can this font be changed? If so how?

RE: Alternative Position View

I have always had line font issues with alternate position views.  I have a problem with the phantom font in the a-p view reverting from phantom back to solid.  I work around this by putting the components in that view on a layer with phantom font.

As far as all the views changing....I got nothin'
