I have a 3/8″ aluminum plate that has machined pockets on both sides. In my drawings, the isometric view will show (and print) 2 edges from the pockets on the back side of the plate when at zoom to fit, but when I zoom in to the area it will show correctly. Is there a way to eliminate these edges when printed? Right clicking and selecting hide edges is not an option since there is no real edge there.

Can you attach a drawing and a part so that we can see this?

SW has had a problem with edges bleeding through thin sections forever. It is usually seen in sheet metal parts.
As a workaround, could you create a config with the underside pocket suppressed, and use that in the isometric?

This isn’t the first time I have seen it either, supressing the back side pockets is what I will have to do to avoid confusion by others looking at the drawings. Thanks
