Visual Styles

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

A very simple concept in AutoCAD 3D.  A cylinder sits on top of a rectangular block. 

Make the visual style of the cylinder solid and the visual style of the rectangular block wire-frame.

Keep both the cylinder and rectangular block in the one drawing.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Try applying a 90% Transparency to  your rectangular block.

Then use either HIDDEN or  CONCEPTUAL Visual Style

That's awesome and thank you nod684.  I want to be able to show an ACAD 3D assembly and have control over the visual style of the various components.  Never thought of using transparency.
