nathan_glass Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 how do you create a fill pattern without the boundry polyline showing like i see in many of the built-in details? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pintodesign Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 not quite sure what you're asking but I'll take a stab at it. make the color of the boundary line white if you don't want to see it, or change the layer and give it whatever lineweight you want.

nathan_glass Posted October 13, 2015 Author Share Posted October 13, 2015 yes that's what I mean. i thought there may be a setting to make them show or not show. thank's for the quick answer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dermot Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 There is also a blank line style you can use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WendyatArtform Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 There is also a blank line style you can use. Â Huh! Â I did not know that! Â And sometimes making the boundary white obscures things one doesn't want to obscure. Â Â Cool beans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneDavis Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Yup, there it is. Â Third from the bottom. Â It's not easy to find Waldo when he's a blank! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_Emery Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 it's not very obvious in the line style DBX.  Perhaps it should be better identified. Essentially an invisible line that remains selectable.  It's kind of like the invisibility cloak in Harry Potter.  Very good for ghost walls, like dormer cheek walls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRAWZILLA Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I have been using the blank line for many years now, saves a lot of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dshall Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 There is also a blank line style you can use. I have heard that rumor but never took the time to find it. Â Please help me out, Â where is it? Â The pic shows that last line styles but I do not see the blank line style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dshall Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Yup, there it is.  Third from the bottom.  It's not easy to find Waldo when he's a blank!  Very hard  to find, my third from bottom is a "t" line style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskan_Son Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015  Very hard  to find, my third from bottom is a "t" line style.  Its not the third from the bottom. Its like the 20th from the bottom... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge_Runner Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Never knew that even existed; I thought it was just a break between the dbx sections for some reason. Like Wendy said, I have used a white line for years but often had to go back and edit position because it obscured another line I wanted to see. Cool.

DRAWZILLA Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 It's in different spots depending on what you are trying to do, look for no line just a space. It's been around for many many versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich_Winsor Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 And people say that Chief's Cad tools aren't very good. Check out this front elevation of the Taj Mahal that I created using just the basic OOB Cad tools: Â Â Did I mention that I did it all using the invisible line style.

Doug_Park Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Never knew that was there, I wonder how long its been around?? Â I'm not sure exactly off the top of my head. But I think we added that circa version 10 maybe before, but it has been there for many versions. Making it more obvious would be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Carrick Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Yep, I've been using it for as long as I can remember. It's great for a lot of things such as CAD Masks, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskan_Son Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 ...Making it more obvious would be good.  Agreed. I've always wondered why it was located in such an odd spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
