why I can't hide hidden lines after an union solids?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi mates,

I have attached a file where I did an union between solids.

Now, even if I run the hide command with display silhouette option sets to ON I'm still able to see the parts of the union solids...WHY?

How can I avoid that?

 

Thanks for the help

Stefano.

What parts are you talking about? What did you union?

Hi ReMArk and thanks for your reply!

I'm always appreciate your help :)

 

What parts are you talking about? What did you union?

 

the lower part...I mean could you see the two curved edges on the right and left side of the horizontal part?

Posted

Yes, I can. So what? BTW, the lower portion of the curved section does not appear to be unioned. Was that intentional?

Posted

no...I don't want to see the two portions

 

I want to see just one solid

Posted
no...I don't want to see the two portions

Really? Your sill and the adjoining trimwork are three separate objects. And your window frame is six separate objects (2 per side and 2 for the top).

well...I'm not really getting you now, but what I want to avoid is to see the two horizontal lines that I can see on the two sides of two windows frame

I mean, the junction lines that boundary the two sided curved objects

Well my "guess" is you want to set VSOBSCUREDEDGES to 1 instead of 0.

You didn't union very much of your window.

that's the question...I'm not sure that my release has this command...could you confirm me that you are able to hide those lines with your younger version?

Posted

I checked AutoCAD 2004. The command is non-existent.

 

Time to upgrade?

Posted

Okay, you're right...I leaved some parts sliced...but even if I union them it doesn't change the question I'm still see the separation between the two parts

Posted

Could you make it a full one? with your release?

I just check 2007 and the command is listed. So the bad news is you have to upgrade. The good news is that you only have to upgrade to 2007.

Yes, I could. Do you want the soglia curva and cornice_svasata to be separate entities or do you want everything unioned together?

everything unioned together

Normally I don't do windows. I'll make an exception for you. Saved in 2004 dwg file format. I had to aggressively purge your drawing to meet the file size limit here.

oh yes it was enough a picture of it...just to see the final result no more.

Anyway, thanks a lot for your help!

Posted

yes but...I'm still able to see the joins over the soglia_curva that's the point

Posted

Well what can I say? I don't do miracles. I had to save it back to 2004 file format. Now when you upgrade to 2007 or higher then you can fix the problem. I did the best I could with what I had. I can travel back in time but some AutoCAD commands cannot. Understand?

If you are talking about where the sill begins to curve, you are going to see a line there no matter what
