Hello,

When i render a scene which includes road layouts I would like the polylines which denote parking sapces to be visible.
Is there a way of making these lines appear above the render, some sort of draw order command?
At the moment some of the lines are partially hidden under the render, it seems fairly random where it does it.

any ideas?

I'm guessing that the lines and the surfaces are all coplanar, so there is some ambiguity as to which should be rendered on top, hence a seemigly random pattern. Draw order in 3D is very easy, it's called the Z-axis :wink: . Simply move your lines up by a very small distance so that they are above the surface. Render again and all will be well.
