Desperately need help with hide command |
|
|
Hello everyone
I am having a bit of trouble
I have a 3d drawing that I am trying to print with the lines hidden. After I hide the objects in the print dialogue box and print the drawing everything turns out OK except the cylinders, they have a zig-zag pattern on them! I cant seem to get rid of it and have spent many many hours trying to get this to work.
Your reply would be greatly appreciated

Does setting DISPSILH to 1 help?

Yes, DISPSILH set to 1 is certainly the way to fix the problem.
I think the zig zag pattern you see on every curved surface is the mesh
Autocad creates to show 3dsolid objects when you activate hide command or
hidden lines plot.

| Look in the on-line help files and search for "tesselation". |
