Shaded, edges visible in drawing

    I'm having a problem inserting assemblies in a drawing rendered shaded
    with edges visible. Some of the parts do not have edges visible,
    others do. This is what it looks like. It does the same thing on two
    different computers. Any idea what the problem is?

    If you're using '07, there's a new functionality for each part to carry its
    own edge settings. From the assembly, right click each of your parts and
    click on "Component Display" and make sure each is set to default. I just
    tried it and I could very easily make a drawing look like your example.
    Setting all the parts back to default component display allowed the overall
    edge setting to take effect again.

    If you're not on '07 you might want to look into drawing high quality
    settings, etc. We've had problems with the view quality in the past
    tweaking drawing views in ways not necessarily expected.
