Hi,
Does anyone know how to hide the wire or cable path line after exiting from the harness program? Please see the attached which highlights this issue. I use Inventor 2014.
Thanks

Those are the path lines. If you find those runs in your browser, tree them out (+) till you come to the actual run.
If I had a tube and pipe file I would send you an image of what I am talking about. Bottom line is you just need to dig until you find it and when you find the run RC on it and turn off the visibility.

Cadmanto,
No Joy. I guess I need a screen capture of where to look. I couldn't get treed out enough to see the path lines.
Thanks
I cannot duplicate exactly what you have, but here is an image of what I was talking about.
This is the depth you might have to dig to.

Cadmanto,
I've attached my screen shot of the wire harness. It doesn't even come close to looking like the pipe creation tree. As such, I can only make the wire visible or not. I still can't see how to turn off the run sketch.
Thanks
You are right, they are no the same. My humble apologies. I made a gross assumption that the harnesses would have a similar tree as the tube and pipe.
When you RC on any of the wires is there anything in the menu that suggests visibility that might turn these off?

The best you can do is edit the harness.. Right click on the harness name in the browser and select "harness settings" then you can uncheck "use surfaces for All Segments and Wires"
Of course rendering it will make them go away too..
mcgyvr,
The solution you offered works. The results look perfect. I often need this level of illustration for my documents. Rendering as you mentioned works as well, but is sometimes overkill and as a wiring model can get very elaborate, the rendering times can get very time consuming.
Thanks again!
I can't see the image of the original problem to fully understand the question, but if you go into Object Visibility on the View tab and turn off 3D sketches, the wire paths will be hidden.
