Anyone know how to clean up the sketch render of random lines?? Please look at attached JPEG, misc. lines attach to handles of different cabinets.
I'm using version 8.1. any help would be appreciated

Hi Peter,

I tried and still did not work...any other suggestions??

Peter

have you tried to:
-rebuild and re-generate? (on a Mac you hold down the ALT key before selecting Re-build from the main menu)

-use a Marquee around the kitchen area in plan view? If it is your Graphics card that can't do the work, try to minimize what AC should generate in 3D-view with the help of the Marquee tool.

-try changing your setting of the problematic lib. parts ti see if it is an internal library part problem.
For example, if you select just a few of your cabinets in plan view and then go to the very same 3D camera view - does it behave the same way? If yes, there might be a problem with your library part's settings or there might be a problem with that lib. part in general. Does it behave the same way when in any of the other 3D engine modes?

Hope any of the suggestions above will help you, if not solving the problem, then at least locating it ...

Check your "Line overstretch" settings, I think you will find that the value is too high. Try bringing it down a little and re render.

See attached image

HTH,
Cheers.

I think you have to use more simple handles. Now you used curvy ones, with rounded edges.

I've tried everything, and nothing works....except if I change the view, the lines go away...??!! I'm using cabinetbuilder to model the cabinets, perhaps its an add-on bug?

I'm guessing that the sketch engine sees those lines as a near continuous horizontal line when viewed from directly in front, so decides to join them up?
