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.

RE:Some Parts with Disappearing Lines
I noted this a year, or so, ago and reported it. There is an HLR setting that is relatively new. Something like Advanced or Precise HLR (I'm not sitting at my machine right now ...). There used to be only one. I noticed that I had an issue with tangent lines. I had to used the Advanced (Precise?) HLR to get the behavior I expected. The plain old HLR no longer seemed to do anything.
