In order to wrap my lettering around a cylinder, I had to forget a line drg with hatch, though even the hatch wouldnt show as white.
I have extruded it in ortho planar mode as very thin. then that can be wrapped around the cylinder.
However it is with a white edge and a grey fill as it appears,
I have tried the first light grey colour option in the colour list but still get that light grey.
Also the white edge goes larger relative to the shape as I zoom out ruining the delicate lettering etc.
same goes for the red. at least its red. but need the edge gone.
So
how do I stop the edge showing at all on these very thin extrusions ?
and
This processes sounds rather… eccentric. The edges won’t dynamically change thickness unfortunately.
Is there a particular reason that you don’t use the rendered mode? Are you locked to V5, or can you use V8 as well? Is there a special reason that the viewport has to have very specific properties, rather than just rendering it with materials you can apply?
What about turning off the surface edges, and then using DupEdge to recover the edges you want to see?
Hi,
Need to be in shaded mode,
have got as far as plan 21 all using the colours of the item created with layers.
so for continuity I must progress with shaded mode, only this and one other plan left to do.
highly complex item, hundreds of layers, let alone parts.
and trying to do layout view using rendered mode, featuring all the dims I see in shaded mode, mental meltdown.
So no chance whatsoever of me now trying for rendered mode just to get white objects looking white.
so how do I turn off those edges ?
and how do I get white looking like white ?
and I have V8 but it may wreck the dims I have, need to get this off today, not open another door and further grief.
Then after some video editing lasting a few weeks, trial V8.
Printing it as the A3 pdf from Layout View it is very obvious the edges are messing everything up.
