After you put detail components in the correct graphic draw order, you can use the Show Hidden Lines tool to obscure the lines behind a detail component.
- Select View tabGraphics panel (Show Hidden Lines).
- Select the elements that you want to show hidden lines through. Lines from obscured elements will show through these elements.
- Select one or more elements for which you want hidden lines displayed. Obscured edges and lines for these elements will appear as hidden lines.
Note: The object must be in the correct order. You cannot hide the lines of a bolt that is on top of a 4x6 stud. The bolt must first be sent behind the 4x6 stud to be obscured. To show the bolt as hidden lines, select the 4x6 stud, and then select the bolt. See
Remove Hidden Lines.
