Hey there!
I am sometimes experiencing that my wireframe is suddenly "left behind" when moving a part in an assembly. I'm using the Shaded With Edges visual option, and the edges are left behind as you can see in the attached picture.
I haven't been able to reconstruct this error, and the part itself works fine. I can save, close, and open in order to fix the wireframe.
Anyone else experiencing that who has a fix for it?

Just wanna add that I just updated my graphics card driver to the newest - 320.00 from Nvidia, and I thought it had stopped doing it... Now it does it again 😞
Can you try using the "Performance" button in the Applications>Hardware tab.
I tried using both the Performance and the Quality options.
Changing the setting seems to be a temporary fix, which, at least updates the wireframe to be on the part. After that it may, or may not be "left behind" again if I move my assembly or constrain a new part to it
Additional info:
Switching the view option to shaded removes the wireframe that is left behind. But switching back to Shaded With Edges shows the wireframe in the position it was left in before
There seems to be some issues with Nvidia, Win7 and Inventor 2013 and 2014 with Shaded and Edges together. Other posts with antialiasing with the Edge option.
I just saw the same thing happen today on my AMD Radeon 5990. A single part was moved, but it's wireframe stayed put (the edges part of shaded with edges). The shaded part moved as expected. Changing visual styles did not have any effect. Ignoring it, I inserted several other instances of that same part, they didn't have the error but that one part's wireframe stayed in its wrong position. After I closed and reopened Inventor the edges behaved properly.
I'm thinking this is a graphics caching issue. The line definitions were cached, but not cleared out of cache until I closed the program. I'm really getting dissapointed that AutoDesk has released a graphics program with so many graphics errors, especially this far down the road of their development career. This makes 3 major graphics issues in 2014 that did not exist in 2013 and before. Please fix this Autodesk, with all haste, due or not.
Yes, problems with the Ray-Tracing in IV2014 that wasn't in IV2013. The Ray-Trace has been identified by ADKS and should be covered in the next Hot-Fix/SP. Hope it fixes the dispaly issues as well.
This question is marked as solved, but I don't see the solution? We are having this problem on multiple computers.
Inventor Professional 2014
Windows 7
Nvidia Quadro 4000, (various drivers, mine is 9.18.13.2049)
Update your drivers, current Nvidia driver is shown in my signature at the bottom of this post. Also install the latest SP for Inventor.
Service Pack 1 installed (post beta). Still happening, on Performance Mode. (not using software graphics). If I have to use software graphics mode for things to look right, then whats the point in buying expensive video cards? Autodesk should be doing better than this.
Rumor has it that Service Pack 2 will begin to solve some of these graphics issues. However notoriously service pack 2 comes out the same time the next year version is released (or later as in Inventor 2013 service packs). At that time what's the point? Everybody's moving onto the next year looking for a better product. I've been waiting for a more STABLE product, since 2011. That's worth a full year's release.
With the addition of D3D back in realease 11 (not 2011) I found no difference in performance between OpenGL and D3D. When ADSK quit using OpenGL there was no reason to stay with the expensive Quadro cards. I quit specing machines with Quadro and moved to the fastest Nviada GTX (gamer) cards.
Make sure you are on the latest Microsoft certified drivers for your card (not ADSK certified).
I accepted as solution when I saw that Autodesk was already aware of the issue.
I cannot check this issue right now, as I'm currently at school, not work.
School decided to use 2013, and work is 2014.
