Ghost lines appear in extruded geometry

Anonymous · ‎03-14-2015

After drawing lines/arcs, joining and then extruding, phantom lines appear in the geometry in Model space.

They shift/disappear/reappear sporadically as I pan and zoom. Seems to only effect shallow extrusions (1/4" lauan material).

Any way to fix this?

Hi,

I cannot reproduce this issue on my side with any Visual Style. Can you attach your drawing here?

I have the same problem except it is in paper space. Phantom lines will appear on objects, usually connecting with something like a hole in the solid object. If I zoom in close they go away. But when I print the layout the lines print as well. I have attached a page where this appears. It is in an isometric view of a round flat lid. Any help would be appreicated.

Hi,

I can reproduce the issue on my side.
After quick investigation I can say that this issue could be a bug in AutoCAD (in both versions - for Mac and for PC): these lines appears in viewport with visual style other than 2D Wireframe when 3D Solids are extremely thin in compare to its area.
Look here:

You can try to use SOLPROF workaround or create flatten view of 3D objects with FLATSHOT command, than put the result to Layout.
