I am designing an sheet metal enclosure around a weldment. after applying the sheet metal exterior, I can still see the weldment behind the sheel metal.Is there a way to make anything behind the sheet metal "invisable" besides using the hide feature.
thank you
Yes, I was wondering if there is a setting to make the sheet metal non-transparent without using "change transparency" or the hide button
Sounds like a graphics card issue. Have you tried making a pdf to check whether you still see the weldment?
This is a long standing bug issue/limitation of the software. A simple but not always useable workaround is to change the parts that are bleeding through to Shaded mode ... as opposed to Shaded with Edges mode.
I would try to have a gap between the two materials. Even .001" seems to work for me.
Are you sure you have not clicked on the "change transparency" icon? It is right next to the "hide component" icon and even looks very similar, has the part symbol with a pair of glasses however for the change transparency the part symbol is translucent looking.
