Some Parts with Disappearing Lines
I have been using Keycreator since it first came out so I have a few hours under my belt.
There has been a problem I have had for years with Keycreator that I just figured out in the last year.
I make most of my parts as single models such as a bookcase or a desk, if it is a 2 pcs part or more I use assembles.
The problem I have had is disappearing lines in HLR rendering.
for example I would import a Raised Panel Door into a drawing and when I box moved it to a different size one of the parts on the door would have dissapearing lines, it would show up in the Model and in the Layouts.
Also sometime when I box moved a part like a TV Stand say to 4" wider or shorter some of the face frame parts would have disappearing lines.
Solution: 
I use the --- Reverse Body Normals --- Fix Solid Normals --- check box --- tool.
With this tool you can select as many parts as needed and then execute the command.
So far it has worked eveytime and the disappearing line are gone.
The reason I wrote this is I would like Keycreator to stay around for a lone time and if this helps anyone be more productive that would be great.
Also any tips that would work better let me know.
