Hidden lines in viewport

Anonymous — Tue, 08 Nov 2016 12:34:30 GMT

My question is simple, is there a way of showing the lines below in my viewport? It seems Autocad is not recognizing my pipe edges in front of the other bodies, so it doesn't show in my viewport.

Hi,

since there is no CAD file here i'll suggest the follow:

inside you VP change PSLTSCALE system variable then regen and see if there is differents.
check if your layer if it's freeze or turned off in your VP.

- Make sure it's off no-plot.

- Make sure it's not on defpoint and try moving the lines to another layer.

- Turn off annotations with ANNOALLVISIBLE TO 0.

- Use MATCHPROP and copy the properties of another line.

- Redraw it with properties at default.

If this is a 3D drawing and those pipes are behind the other objects and not in front as you stated, changing the view style to wireframe should get them to show.

Hi @Anonymous,

Did this issue get resolved for you? This condition is likely due to the Visual Style you have selected as @RobDraw mentions. If choosing 2D Wireframe is not an option you might consider using Solprof or Viewbase to see if you can get better representation in your layouts.
