    Non-White Paper Color TIF File from Drawing

    Plusfours - that's a great workaround. Seems so obvious now! Thanks. [peace]

    Non-White Paper Color TIF File from Drawing

    I just checked out the Hypersnap page. At first I thought it may be able to pull it off by zooming in on a detail before the capture since it has the ability to Auto-scroll and concurrently captures long web pages and other documents, enabling it to grab more than is visible on the screen. I...

    Non-White Paper Color TIF File from Drawing

    Thanks for your rapid responses. Aside from the non-white background, a high dpi (like the 300 I listed) is absolutely neccessary in order to achieve an acceptable level of detail. It seems like any output from a drawing is going to yield a white background no matter what format you choose...

    How to thicken silhouette edges of a model or assembly

    I looked all over the Document Properties and System Options and the Help file for a setting for "outer edges". I couldn't find it. The closest I came was "visible edges" and that merely made EVERY edge thicker instead of just the silhouette edges, which just made it look smudged and less...

    How to thicken silhouette edges of a model or assembly

    Many of you are probably familiar with the hand rendering technique of using a thicker pen on silhouette edges to make a part "pop" from the page. (See this link for some examples: http://pages.cpsc.ucalgary.ca/~brosz/research/sil/ ) I have often wanted a function in Solidworks that would do...
