Hey all, I am having an issue when I create solid subtractions. I create the initial extrude and it looks perfect in any render mode. When I subtract a shape "a rectangle for an opening" lines will appear on the surface of the newly created solid subtraction. These lines originate at corners and extend either to another corner or the center of a line between corners. This happens regardless of how I create the original shape or the intersecting shape. i.e. using the rectangle tool, polyline tool, etc. The lines show up in polygon render mode in my viewports and design layers. I have tried workarounds such as using "Shaded Polygon No Lines" with the foreground render mode set to hidden line which makes the unwanted lines lines disappear but the faces of all my surfaces are shaded grey. Adding lights in the design layer doesn't light the faces in the sheet layer. I am not sure why rendering modes look different between design and sheet layers. Any ideas on how to get rid of these lines? I attached a test file so you can see what I am talking about.
