When I use the Pngout and hit enter to create an image of everything on screen. It selects the Surface and creates the image with the Surface Highlighted.

OK. I got out a clean PNG by making sure that the cursor never crossed the drawing area. But that seems like a flaw.

In the view style have you tried turning isolines off?

No. I'll try that later. As soon as I got a clean shot I moved on.  How deep is it by you?

Joe,

 

Tuning isolines off didn't help. I usually have them off but had recently reset my user profile. I thought turning off the Selection Preview (when no command is active) might do it. But that didn't either. I think it I'd have to turn of Selection Preview completely because PNGOUT lets you select objects or hit enter for entire viewport. I've learned to keep the cursor over the command line so nothing gets highlighted.

 

We ended up with about 16" where I work and 2' at home. Took me 1 hr 45 min for my one hour commute in the morning and 1 hr 30 min in the afternoon for my usual 1 hr trip.
