Wire Frame Thickness

[Matthew D. Hoedeman]

I am working on a detail for a customer. Surface and wire frame. I am checking all the surface, but only within the wire frame boundaries. It is hard to see the wire frame (yes, I did the colors). Is there a way to make the wire frame show THICKER so it will stand out better? I know I can in my cad package, but can Pcdmis do it?

None that I know about other than adding material on vector point. Run into same thing from time to time.

I take by that you mean you changed the colors of the wire frame to be different than the solid.

I don't think there is a way to change the wire thickness.

YEP, I made tehm as ANNOYING as possible to get a good contrast, surface was BLUE and wire was YELLOW. The worst color combination in the world.

You might try applying a texture to the surfaces.
You can get some very strange effects with that.

Matt,

Have you tried adjusting the transparency level?

I'll try again I think it'll help more this way.

Did you try the transperancy option. it will allow you to see thru the surface to your wire frame.

No, I didn't try that, I have never even used it, but it did do the trick, I'll have to remember that for the next time.

RESOLVED, thank you TESTED!

Your welcome.
I'm sorry about the "Matt" post I keep hitting the tab key and continuing to type without looking at what I have done and ... well anyway I'm glad I could help.

Have a great one.
