how to hide some quilts? (the ones that should be removed when 'no hidden is chosen!)

[pshepherdson]

OK, so, how do you hide some quilts, and show others?

I have a part that has tapped holes top & bottom.  When I make my top view, I want all the stuff hidden below that surface.  Easy enough..   'No Hidden' and 'hidden line removal for quilts' = Yes.

Sure enough, all my hidden lines are not shown, nor my hidden holes.  BUT: my shown holes, hole on the top of the part / in the view, now have their quilts hidden.  (SO they are just thru holes, no pretty pink circle to show / denote threads)

OK..  'hidden line removal for quilts' = No.

Now I see the quilts for the threads in my tapped holes.  Problem is now I see ALL my outer circle to denote threads on hidden holes.  (So I see all the threaded portions, but no 'hidden holes' or other features)

SO, how do you hide a quilt on a tapped hole, that is a hidden feature in the chosen view?  And have the quilts to denote threads appear on shown holes?

I would also go as far as to say this issue lies with weld quilts as well.

I have a sheet metals box, with eth corner seams welded.  When I do a flat pattern, and show the flat pattern, The welds remain, and show in the flat pattern.  But when I 'hide quilts', they are hidden in the flat patter, but also in the isometric / assembled view..

Weld are easier, as you can grab them, and move them to a hidden layer from the view (still mighty hard to understand / pull off, but doable)

Use layers. Create layers to contain the quilts that you need to toggle the display of. In the drawings you can control the layers display for specific views (different from the model layer display). As an example, if you have a layer for top and bottom holes you can blank (hide) the bottom hole quilts in the top view and the same for the bottom view.
