Hidden and Tangent lines on/off
 
For our standard views we usually use hidden lines on (yellow, dotted), and tangent lines off (invisible), but our isometric views are usually hidden off, tangent on.

Is there a way to have different view types default to different line settings? So standard front, left right views would be have hidden on, and tangent off, and iso views would have hidden off and tangent on, and section views and cutaway views would have hidden and tangent off.

Hello, were you ever able to figure this one out? I am trying to solve exactly this at the moment

I have not tested this yet, but I believe the "DOCU-REGISTER-VIEW-EXCEPTION-PROFILE" option could do what you want. You can find this in help.

Regards

I tried this and it works. I added these lines to my am_customize file.

Code:

;; *** Set isometric view profile for small assembly/part ***
(docu-register-view-exception-profile
  :name                          "Isometric Small"
  :label                          "Isometric Small"
  :minimum-number-of-parts        0
  :maximum-number-of-parts        100
  :view-type                      :general
  :hidden-line-visible            :off
  :centerline-creation            :off
  :symmetryline-creation          :off
  :tangent-line-visible          :on
  :thread-creation                :on
)

;; *** Set isometric view profle for large assemblies ***
(docu-register-view-exception-profile
  :name                          "Isometric Large"
  :label                          "Isometric Large"
  :minimum-number-of-parts        101
  :maximum-number-of-parts        999999
  :view-type                      :general
  :update-mode                    :graphics
  :facet-accuracy                :low
  :hidden-line-visible            :off
  :centerline-creation            :off
  :symmetryline-creation          :off
  :tangent-line-visible          :on
  :thread-creation                :on
)

Hi Tom! Thank you for your input.

I also got to this point. However it is not what we're looking for. The values in docu-register-view-exception-profile will let you define the hidden/tangent lines for the entire view set (Top, Front, Right, Iso), but not for an individual view (Top only, for example).
