Wire thickness question

[MichaelEwer]

When wiring in Solid Edge V20, is it possible to have the wiring appear as large as the diameter specified, or does it always show up as a very thin line?

Thanks

Show up where ? - in the model or in draft ?
Have you just created the pathe or have you created the wire also ?

In the model. I have created the path AND the wire, and the wire always appears as just a very thin line no matter what diameter I specify. With the model I'm working on, the thick wires are important to the design and may cause space issues, so the thin lines are not a good indication of whats going on.

Have you specified the wire diameters ?

Yes, I have selected the wire and changed the diameter under properties. The program understands that a new wire diameter has been specified, because it will warn you if you try to put a thick wire through a small hole. However, it still appears in the model as just a very thin line which clearly hasn't changed size.
