hidden lines in 3d wireframe.

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi, I'm using archicad 16 solo (on mac OSX snow leopard) and wondered if there was a way of showing hidden lines on a 3D wireframe object as dashed hidden lines? I can't seem to find anything in the settings - does anyone know if this is achievable?

thanks

You are confusing wireframe and hidden lines. I've just proven that hidden lines can be shown as dashed on a hidden line [not wireframe] internal engine 3D view by enabling this function on the Special Menu. It ends up looking as i expect that you would want.

Enabling the Special Menu is tricky. I can't remember how offhand, and it depends on your operating system. Search the forum for "Special Menu Enable" instructions.
