HLR for quilts

[dakeb]

Hi,

WF3. I have a drawing with a number of sheets and views that I want to enable HLR for quilts. I have selected View/Properties on some of them and successfully hidden the quilts.

However, there is one projection view containing a local section that the option is greyed out, and it is not removing quilt hidden lines.

It's parent view has HLR removal checked, and does not show hidden lines.

There is also a detail view related to it if that makes any difference.

The same parent view has another projection view that allows me to check the HLR box.

I implemented the hlr_for_quilts config.pro option but it doesn't seem to work on views that already exist in a drawing.

I tried changing the view to a "general" view, and still the option is greyed out.

Is it something to do with the local section or detail view? If so, why? How do I fix it?

Thanks

David

The only work-around I have found is to remove the local section then View/Properties allows you to check the HLR for quilts box. The quilts are then hidden after the view regens. Then you have to recreate the local section by redrawing the spline boundary curve. The view remains with HLR checked afterwards (but greyed out so you cannot change it back if you want to).

What a PITA to have to redraw the section spline just to do HLR! I'm sure this is not intentional behaviour.
