Solid Edges Thickness ? NX85

[daluigi]

Do you guys have any idea what setting controls the solid eges thickness - I like the ones from left in the picture but cannot figure out where it was once set...

Use your binoculars to find the setting for edge enhance and then toggle that to see if that is what you are looking for.
I am not with NX right now so I do not know where the setting is.

Actually there are a couple of things that can be done.

The option that jerry1423 mentioned will effect all solid and sheet bodies in your session, but it's not set in Customer defaults, but rather at...

Preferences -> Visualization -> Visual

...and in the section of the dialog labeled 'General Display Settings', sub-section 'Session Settings', you'll find the option 'Edge Emphasis'. Toggle it ON to get the effect that you're looking for. It will remain ON, from session to session, until you toggle it OFF.

The second approach is to actually edit the width of the edges of a body, but that's done on an body by body basis. To change this setting, go to...

Edit -> Object Display...

...and select the solid/sheet body and hit OK. When the dialog opens, in the section labeled 'Basic' you can select any of nine different edge 'Width'.
