    Default hidden lines showing as dashed lines

    Hi,

    I would like to show hidden lines as dashed lines. How to do it? Also, I would like the item I call out as glass to appear translucent. Is this possible in solids, or do I need to render?

    Thanks

    With ACAD 2011, you can adjust opacity to all objects individually from 0% to 90% transparency... That is main new feature in ACAD 2011... Hidden lines you can turn on from "VISUALSTYLES" dialog box, and under "2d Hide - Obscured Lines" under "Linetype" change from "off" to "dashed"... When applied new visual style and done command "HIDE" hidden lines should be dashed...
