M1 Ultra Hidden line render

[J. Miller]

I’m not a computer guru but….

How can my studio ultra render hidden line real time in nanoseconds and allow me to freely rotate but hidden line viewports take forever comparatively 

just wondering

Not sure if your signature is current and you really are still on VW 2015/2016 ....

 

 

But with VW (2021 or 2022) came a new Viewport OpenGL based fast HL Mode,

(now based on Metal for Mac or DirectX for Windows), which before was only

available in Viewport's Direct Editing Design Layer Mode.

Now also available in the 3D Drawing Windows.

(Not sure but it should now be also available as the new Viewport HL Rendering Mode,

although it looks as slow as the ancient version, maybe because of generating real

explodable 2D line work)

 

It will quickly calculate and cache the HL first and then you will be able to rotate

your HL View in real time. Works and looks great !
