Changes an element or element segment in a drawing view to visible, hidden, or tangent edge option. Occasionally when a drawing view is processed with the Edge Display command, edges that transition from visible to hidden for example, may not give you the results you want. You can use Edge Painter to apply the edge display options you want when this occurs. You can apply the edge display options one element at a time or to multiple elements at the same time.

When you create a drawing of an assembly model, an additional edge option is available to allow you to classify an edge as assembly hidden. Assembly hidden edges are visible edges that are concealed behind another part in the assembly model but would otherwise normally be visible.
