I have 4x basic 3D models all in dwg format. I simply need to create an individual jpg perspective view for each one, but in a particular style.

The style that I need each jpg view in is shown in the following drop box link as attached 'Example' file but even though the style I need to achieve is really basic, AutoCAD dosn't seem to be able to create it for me!

If any one can help me achive the desired output style in AutoCAD or has any ideas etc, it will be appreciated. It's really starting to annoy me now to say the least!

Thanks

I think I'll skip the 22MB download.  The preview image looks like you need to highlight some edges.  Is that correct?

haha no worries Wink

basically yes. i just need to replicate the style for all models to match the 'example' file, but the pre-set visual style options don't help. the closest i can get is wireframe, but that's no good.

i think i simply need to highlight the crease & edge lines, but i'm not sure how to go about this?

i am almost tempted to out-source this to save time, but this would probably mean losing money on the project. not ideal but customer satisfaction is more important to me.

hmmmm......

I think you need to look at the VSOBSCUREDLTYPE variable.
