Highlight distance

I'm having trouble with what Creo decides to highlight whenever I select something in the model tree.

If, for instance, I made an extrude in which I have a couple of 13 diameter holes, and then some 3.2 ones, if I'm zoomed out too much, the only thing highlighted would be the 13 diam. holes; the smaller ones being highlighted only when I'm zoomed in so much, I can't see all of them on the same screen.

I find this rather annoying, and would like to change the distance at which all features are highlighted. Is such a thing possible?

Andy,

Not sure this is what you are after, but look at these two options for your config file.

lods_enabled

lods_value

It probably is. From the description of those options, it definitely should be the answer I'm looking for. Except the fact that they don't seem to work for me.

I've changed both options from their default("no" and "blank") yet I see no difference(I've used 80,100,1000 and 100000 as values). If I go back in the config file and scroll all the way down I can see that the 2 options are indeed changed, however if I use the *find* button, they still show their default state.

I'm guessing this is bugged. If it matters, I'm using Creo 3 M010.

Thanks for the answer, Dean.

Andrei.

I apologize for not spelling your name correctly. Did you also try selecting the box for LOD in the Model Display Options? This may help.
