Hi guys,
I want to use the Hide/Show edges button from Line format bar. However, it is not enabled in Line format, only the function Color display mode is enabled. How can I solve this problem? My SW version is 2012.
Thanks in advance!

Like Hattie, I only see a grayed out button in the line format bar. Denny, you showed an action in a drawing. I want to do this in a part, not a drawing. Anyone? -JLW

The only edges I can think of in a Part that can be hidden would be Tangent Edges. Is that what you mean?
Hi Glenn. Yes, I guess that's what I mean. The edges I want to hide should be tangent.
Thanks for the quick response, btw. I'd have responded more quickly but I couldn't find the "reply" button. Took me awhile to notice I'd been logged out, AGAIN! Side topic, for sure, but I'm pulling my hair out in frustration over being logged out every few minutes, and not being remembered when I try to log back in. What is UP with that? -Lee
When the Forum was over-hauled a couple of weeks ago there was a problem with users being automatically logged out after a short time, but that was promptly fixed. Log-ins are supposed to last 12 hours now. If yours isn't, I'm not sure what's going on.
And for hiding the Tangent Edges on a Part, see below:
Yes!!
My hero. That worked exactly as I wanted. Thank you.
12 hours? Hmm. Something is amiss. I don't understand why it even has to log me out at all but that's definitely a topic for another discussion. I'll take it up elsewhere. Thanks again. -Lee
You can also set tangent edges to off under Display/Selection > Part/Assembly edge display > Removed.
Hi Lu
Just select the view, RMB select the option and click the line which you want to hide.
