Shaded view’s ouline overlapping views

Ok so basically, I have two shaded views on my drawing with the last one inserted overlapping the other while printing. Everything looks wonderful in Pro, but once I print I get the corner of the view hiding the other one.

I know this was discussed with the introduction of Pro WF3, but I couldn't find a definite yes or no answer to the question, can it be fixed?

I've included an image from a PDF I did of adrawing I have...

Thanks,
Denis
 
DL,


Have you tried making each viewa partial view and having the boundary run as close to the view geometry as you dare?

Dear Friend,


First insert second view first at existing location & first view second at existing location.


see the effect, hope this tricks will help to resolve the problem.

i dont know whether it works or not. but what we follow is


first we save as the drawing as pdf and print through Pdf. its working. we are not printing through proe since it takes lot of time to process

Yeah I have, but unfortunately the partial view's outline is the same
as the original, so I still get that cut in the other view.

Eh, I think I may not understand this right, I tried this but the second view inserted always seems to overlap the 1st.

Just tried saving a copy as .pdf and it doesn't work. Same effect. Saving as a tiff file works however I loose all my resolution, and it doesn't make for a nice presentation. Which is what I need this for.
 
Hello


Denis LeBlanc,


Did you figure out how to get rid of the view cut-out.
Even i'm trying to find out a way to get through this problem.
please let me know.
Just send me a e-mail if you can.


Thanks

--BUMP-- as I have experienced the same problem. my view would overlap my title block. when working in dwg view it looks fine but when outputting to pdf it clips. I fomd a work around by rescaling view and positioning it partially off of the sheet. it would be nice to correct this properly.

im new to layers in pro e amd haven't quite figured them out but I know that in adobe photoshop you could set layer backgrounds as transparent... not sure if this can be done in proe though.
 
I guess the "shaded view box" is a drawing-to-PDF thing and not a ProE issue. I have the same thing in Solid Edge. A typical WYSINWYG problem (what you see is not what you get). On screen the views behave as having a transparant background, when printed the background is set to white. The best I can do is play with background-foreground and the location of the different views to have the overlapping corner of the top view fall into the empty space of the one below.

Has anyone ever found a solution for this problem? I know this is almost 3 years old but there is no resolution at the end of this thread....
 
Okay, according to PTC's support site for Case Solution CS5141 "the development team has informed that this is a current functionality". So basically you have to make sure a shaded view border does not overlap another view's geometry. In my case, I did as someone suggested in another post and trimmed my partial view to the bare minimum of size so that the two do not overlap.
 
Either I'm not understanding the question, or this has been fixed in Creo. I was able to overlap two shaded drawing views without the corner of one showing on top of the other on PDF. The OP image didn't show for me, so here is what I got.

Looks like it has been fixed in Creo, great. Don't know when my
company will ever get that far in upgrades though. We are at WF3 still
and working our way toward WF4.
