A few days ago I had a set of my patent drawings rejected due to shading lines. Is there an easy way that that I can set up my drawings to have shading lines? I currently use Inventor 2011 Pro.

When your in model mode, you can change the Visual Style to the Illustration option, which I'm pretty sure is what your looking for, however, I don't think there is a way to change the Visual Style in drawing mode.
