Is there a means to default to high quality (shaded views and cosmetic thread) when creating new views in a drawing template. There is a setting which seems like it would do that in Document Options under Drawings --> Display Styles, but it has no effect on new views. They are still always low quality. The low quality is almost never useful to me, so having to uncheck it every time is very tedious.
I've noticed the same, mark, and no, haven't found a solution yet. Was hoping the behavior might be different in 2016 (once i have a minute, i'll be switching over) but judging by your signature, it hasn't changed.
I was having the same issue and found the following in options.. (swks2016)
Tools -> Options -> Drawings -> Display Style -> Edge Quality for Shaded Edge Views -> High Quality
Now any time I place a Trimetric or other shaded view, the line quality defaults to "high" YAY!.
Side note... You should probably close any open files before making this change. When I first made this change, files that were already open didn't seem to pick up the new setting until they were closed and reopened....
...works good now! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Hi Dave,
Did you ever get an answer to this.
What I have noticed is that if the view is a standard front / top / side then its 'High Quality'.
However if it's say a Trimetric view with Shaded edges then it comes in as 'Draft Quality.
Thanks
