Hello there. I'm having a bit of a Solidworks brain lapse moment. I recently updated from 2009 to 2012, and now when I view an assembly in Wireframe or one of the Hidden Line views, different parts have their lines as different colors, some of which are hard to see. I know it didn't used to be this way, at least on my system. Enabling one of the transparent views would always show all lines as black. Here is a screenshot of what I'm talking about.

My question is, does anyone know how to tweak the settings to show all hidden lines as one color. If I'm editing a part, it's okay for that part to be a different color, so that's not what I'm concerned about here.

Notice how some lines are black, some are white, and some are grey. this image was taken in normal assembly view mode. I was not editing a part within the assembly at the time. The white and grey lines make it hard to see and I know it wasn't always like this.

I've played around with the color options but haven't been able to figure out a way to get this the way I want it.
