Hidden Line Options

All Windows

If this option is checked, the geometry is shaded in all modeling windows.

If it is unchecked, the geometry is shaded in the current modeling window only.

Optimize during Tumble

Disable Silhouettes

When this option is checked (default), the outline of the model is not drawn during tumble, to speed up the operation.

Tessellation

Use existing tessellation

If this option is unchecked, the model is re-tessellated using the options below. It is checked by default.

Tessellator

Fast – Tessellates more quickly and less accurately.

Accurate – Tessellates more accurately and more slowly.

Tolerance

This value controls how accurately surfaces are tessellated.

Limit edge length

This option only appears if Tessellator is set to Accurate.

If checked, a Max edge length slider appears, to control how large the triangles can get. If unchecked, there is no limit on the size of the triangles.

Max edge length

Specifies the maximum length of any triangle edge (in current linear units).
