Tangent lines are not visible in hidden or wireframe display style.

[GG_10900066]

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.6.0

Tangent Lines are not visible when model display is set to wireframe or hidden line display style -

When I view my models in wireframe or hidden, the tangent lines of a cylindrical feature are invisible.

Cylinders do not have tangent edges that would show up in Creo as such. Post a picture if the issue. If no tangent lines are visible there could be multiple causes for this.

All lines of a cylinder in wireframe are visible lines not tangent edges.

Here is a hollow cylinder I modeled and here is how it is displayed in various display states.

Maybe you need this setting in your config.pro:

display_silhouette_edges yes

[tbraxton]

The default value for that option is yes so someone would have to override that to cause this problem.

 @GG_10900066  launch Creo without any environment customizations and then observe what happens with display.
