They show up in the rendering, but not in Elevation. Is there a setting that needs to be changed. </BLOCKQUOTE> You need to make sure a vectorial hatch has been assigned to the material in question. Options menu - materials - 3D hatching.

The actual material shows in rendering and shaded 3d views only.<BR /> <BR /> Also two elements with different materials will never conceal their join lines even if perfectly aligned.
