Hello,
I am using AutoCAD 2013.
I am new to solid modeling so my question is probably fundamental. I have added structural steel truss-like components to my site model. The components came from a 3D warehouse online. The truss webings are single line representations. When I render the model, these truss webs are transparent. I have added a weathered steel texture map to the materials and associated by layer. Is there a way to quickly make these single-line truss webs stand-out without having to remodel or extrude lots of linework?

Sweep the cross-section shape of the webs using the existing web line(s) as path(s).
