Drawing Model Edge Visibility

Hope this is an easy one. How do you turn visibility back on for model edges that have had visibility turned off in drawing views? I'm using the .dwg format in IV 2020.

 

Cheers,

Todd

Right click on the view and observe the options...

 

Select the option for Show Hidden Edges.

Edges that have been hidden will highlight (probably red).

Select those edges that you want to return to visibility (they will turn green on selection)...

Right click and select Done...

 

You can also use Window selection and Crossing Window section, and filter Layers if necessary.

Sometimes I will hide the entire Visible line layer to make it easier to select certain tangent edges or hidden lines to hide and then turn the Visible line layer back on.
