Question

Random lines on part

Hello, I have random lines on my part and don't know how to hide them. These lines are the exact ones that show when saving an STL file. Does someone know how I can get rid of them?

Did you save it as an STL?  Creo creates the triangles on the part when you save it as an STL so you can view the result.  Press the repaint button to clear the lines.

    I did save an other part as STL. But now every part I open has these line. Because of this I can't open large assembly’s. I have tried reinstalling, but no result. The lines only show when my display style is on “Shading with Edges”.
