How to get rid of these damn holes!

[JeffTaylor]

I have a drawing of a part with some tapped holes that has a section view that has the tapped holes still showing (see attachment). I want to get rid of these lines as it clutters the drawing view. In the view dialogue box, the 'hide quilt' tick box is greyed out as is the 'from parent' box. I have tried to erase lines in the model display menu, but this does not work. Does anyone have any ideas how to get rid of these thread lines?

Thanks in advance.

Jeff

Put your threads on a layer and hide that layer for that view.

Thanks to all who replied.

The solution was to hide the cosmetic features using the show/erase box.

Cheers

Jeff,

You need to re-make your section view. When you create a new section view
you will there is an option for Model & Quilts. This will make the hidden
Line Removal for Quilts option available. Also check the .dtl file option
show_quilts_in_total_xsecs and set the value to 'Yes'.
