Hello,

I'm working on a beautiful model, but its beholders are distracted by ugly curves from sweep and style features! How do I go on to hide them?

The thread linked above helped me get rid of the sweep curve. How do I hide the curves from the style feature?

put the style feature on a layer and hide the layer.

Thank you for your reply!

I want to keep the surfaces from the style feature, but not the curve. I tried thickening the style feature, but then I couldn't mirror it.

Is there a way to find specifically the curves of the style feature when creating the layer? I haven't worked much with layers.

I mirrored the style feature and I was silly enough to try and thicken the mirror feature, rather than thickening the style feature within the mirror.

On the first attempt after lunch I successfully thickened the style feature, and the mirrored version of it.

Also consider the fact that there is a difference in mirroring the "feature" and mirroring the "geometry". (...and mirroring "the part") It all depends on what you are trying to achieve.
