I just loaded ACAD 2016. when I open me old drawings they have weird lines all over them. I can not select the lines or find any info on them. How do I make them go away?

Try disabling hardware acceleration and see if they go away.

Via 3DCONFIG.

Wild guess on my part.  I knew there was a "config" in there somewhere.  Thanks for clearing that up.

Guess that wasn't the problem then or not the exact problem.  Does you system meet the minimum requirements re: graphics card?  This is a desktop or laptop?

Thank to both of you. I got the blurry line cleaned up. The drawings are looking good again. I just need to learn more about the command know.

OK.  Thanks for sharing.  You never know when that piece of information may come in handy for someone else experiencing the same problem.  Happy cadding.
