Hidden lines that hide so well you can't see them!

Here are links to AUGI threads and blog articles about hidden lines.

It would appear that although many of these issues have been raised some time ago, they have still not been properly resolved by “The Factory”.

Drawing hidden lines is a basic drawing requirement, and this should be available in the basic formation of the 3D model and not have to be added on the Plan, Section or Elevation as additional 2D lines.

There is a neat posting over at the Bim and Beam blog about how to control hidden lines in Autodesk Revit Structure by setting a parameter called: Display in Hidden Views http://bimandbeam.typepad.com/bim_beam/2009/07/concrete-beam-hidden-line-display-parameters.html

Here is a posting about showing the hidden lines on plan of an anti-heave slab thickening, in the original posting the lines at 45 degrees from the corners were missing and the image was updated. Again this is a temporary fiddle and not a real fix to the problem which should be addressed by The Factory
