Wesley Burrows Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Does anyone have any insight on why hidden line rendering often produces stuff like this as seen in the truss end. Please note I'm not cutting through the truss at all. Truss objects seem to have this behavior most often, but it seems to be hit and miss. This was from VW2023, but it behaves similarly in 2022.

From the looks of the image it's the end plate of the truss and another piece of truss at 90 creating the cross bracing. Quote Link to comment

Vectorworks, Inc Employee JustinVH Posted September 15, 2022 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted September 15, 2022 It looks like the bolt holes on the gusset plates are causing some soft of artifact to be drawn similar to how a multiple extrude can get artifacts between the upper and lower profile. Those bolt holes are just circles cut out of the poly line before the extrusion is performed so that is an oddity. Quote Link to comment
Wesley Burrows Posted September 15, 2022 Author Share Posted September 15, 2022 It's really odd, they render clean sometimes, but most of the time not. It doesn't seem to matter what 3D conversion level I have I have set either. Quote Link to comment
