sketch lines disappear
sketch lines disappear
(OP)
During the construction of a sketch with grid snaps on, it seem the lines I create get hidden behind the grid
under intensified lines. I can always move the entire sketch as a unit away and in between the grid lines of course, and then I can see the lines, but I was wondering if anyone knows how to stop this from happening. Not a big deal but it has been bugging me for a while.I tried to change the sketch line width but I was not able to affect the sketch elements I was creating. By the way this does not happen if I use the profile tool to create the lines. It only happens when I use the line command.
thanks

Tools + Options + Mechanical + Sketcher
In the Grid section on the top; turn off the DISPLAY option and also the SNAP TO POINT option

Are you working with several parts within a product, and have you changed the colors of those parts? I've noticed that when I change the color of a product or a part, all the geometry in my sketches turn black. If this is the case, just change the graphic properties in the products and parts to NO COLOR.
