Hello,  
I’m having a problem displaying hidden lines in 2D technical drawing mode. I can’t find this function when I’m working on a computer.  
On my iPad, it works perfectly.  
Do you have a solution please? Maybe this function doesn’t exist in desktop version?  
My configuration:  
Mac Desktop version  
Sharp3D version 5.580.0.6676

Thank you!  
Antoine

Hi @AntoineD

Welcome to the forum.  
On the Mac version, you have to double click on the drawing to access to the option to show the hidden lines.  
The video below shows it.
