Hidden view options

When you use Hide on the Edit View dialog to perform hidden line removal, you can use the Hidden page to specify default hidden view settings:

• Remove coincident edges — Select this option to remove coincident edges in the hidden view. It can be time consuming to remove coincident edges in large models. The benefit of removing the edges is that when you plot the drawing, the extra edges are not drawn. If the option is deselected, the plot may contain double edges where edges overlap.
• Check for edges between continuous faces — Select this option to:
  • remove edges between continuous planar faces.
  • check for edges between non-planar continuous faces. It flags any found as being internal. The style of the internal lines is set in the Internal drop-down list.
• Detect outline — Select this option to detect the outline of a model in a hidden view. This locates the outline edges so a style can be applied. If selected, the edge is checked to see if it is an outline.
• Hide triangles — Select this option to hide triangles in a hidden view.
