If I take a sketch, and extrude the center region, everything works fine. (No sketch lines are visible after the extrude)
. . . works as expected, with no sketch lines visible:
However, if I go back into the sketch for any reason (to fully constrain the sketch, or make ANY changes at all) . . .
. . . and then extrude, the unsightly sketch lines are shown with the solid body after the extrude.
In the picture below, I didn’t make ANY changes. I merely went back to edit the sketch, without any changes. Then I re-extruded (again, with no changes to the sketch), but the unsightly sketch lines still remain with the solid body.
What am I doing wrong? How can I avoid having these unsightly sketch lines after my Extrude feature?
Please note: Preferences >> Design >> Auto hide sketch on feature creation is checked. I know I can uncheck Display Options >> Object Visibility >> Sketches, but while that removes the unsightly lines from my solid body after the Extrude, it also makes the sketch invisible when I go into the Sketch again, so I’d have to re-check the Object Visibility >> Sketches box each time I want to view the sketch (which would be highly annoying).
Many thanks in advance for any guidance!
