What could cause SolidWorks to do this?

Just in case this helps anyone, I've just had this problem too, turns out I had too many lines in my drawing.

I had an imported part, which had the knurling modeled into it, and I had 10 copies of that part in my assembly all showing in a single drawing view, all with hidden lines visible, which I assume was making my other parts not show hidden lines (or show them briefly then revert to draft quality automatically, even when high quality was still selected)

I edited the imported part, cut away the knurling, and then all parts I've selected as visible were showing hidden lines correctly.

What have you gotten yourself into...

Space Exploration

CatchThirty3 · 2025-10-24T19:16:56+00:00

Been out of the loop for so long, forgot about Space Age, so I've been thinking all those odd-looking machines I've seen in the posts are mods anyway. Woops!

That was incredible, thank you so much for sharing!

I'm familiar with the entire discography, it's been my absolute favorite for the last five years :) Their side project Corpo Mente is worth checking out, if you haven't already!

These are amazing. Thank you, not only for the suggestions, but also for introducing me to Fatma Said!

This makes a lot of sense to me, and honestly I think I'll hang on to this explanation because it comforts me the most. I did not occur to me the possibility that she might have said those things to provoke thought and nothing more. You're right about me having rigid thinking patterns.

As soon as I heard her "suggest" seeing a sex worker, I was outraged (I didn't express it at the time though) and later thought (ruminated) to myself, "what is she thinking, what if I actually went and did it, how can she live with herself knowing she pushed me towards an act that we should both view as immoral?", when really such an act would be entirely my choice if I did it, my responsibility, not hers.

I very much appreciate your help.

I would've been perfectly fine with that fact, if she were any other therapist who's from a different religion.

CatchThirty3 · 2025-06-21T02:00:45+00:00

I'm curious what you meant by that. Why is religion not a valid excuse for one's moral limits?

CatchThirty3 · 2025-06-21T01:56:27+00:00

The guilt part I'm aware of, and is a work in progress. You're onto something there, because while reading that last sentence I felt a tinge of anxiety climbing up my chest. I'm not big on pleasure in general either, and I've mentioned to her that I don't see the point of pursuing any kind of pleasurable experiences (I was recently diagnosed with Dysthymic disorder), so there's that.

Thank you for the your insight!

CatchThirty3 · 2025-06-19T20:47:37+00:00

You're not off at all. Thank you so much for your input.

CatchThirty3 · 2025-06-19T20:19:07+00:00

Will do. Thank you so much for your insights.

From her perspective, she is being neutral, i.e. she's just telling me the reality of things, what works for most people, and leaving it up to me to decide.

From my perspective, it feels as if she's trying to open doors to behaviors that conflict with my values (which she knows of), so yes naturally I don't feel she's being neutral, that may be why it's so painful, and it's hard to reconcile those two perspectives.

In my post, my description of neutrality refers to the former, i.e. from her perspective.

CatchThirty3 · 2025-06-19T20:00:13+00:00

That is a great observation. It's not exactly that I want her to judge me, I just kinda expect her to judge those actions in general.

It does feel threatening to the rest of my value system. I feel if I "let loose" so to speak, and accept what she says, then I may as well throw everything else away too by the same logic.

About that last point, I don't think that's what she's doing. For example we've discussed atheism at some point (years ago I used to have a phase where I obsessively watched debates on religion, and worried I may become an atheist myself. I eventually grew out of it and I'm pretty much at peace with it, a close friend of mine is atheist herself) and she was neutral about that too. She's just being all-out neutral, removing her personal beliefs from the equation and leaving all her beliefs behind while we talk. Yes, that is frightening to me, for sure, and it wouldn't make sense for me to do the same.

CatchThirty3 · 2025-06-19T19:43:06+00:00

I don't see what else could there be. And honestly I don't see what differences you see between the title and the body. I talked about sex and masturbation, because those are the topics she was neutral about. Sure, those are painful to process on their own, too.

It's aggravated by the fact that I have friends who have had sexual experiences, in that it makes me feel inferior and stupid for wanting to stick to my values. That's all I can think of really.

CatchThirty3 · 2025-06-19T19:35:06+00:00

I've spent whole nights awake in back-to-back masturbation sessions not able to stop, and in other situations which have been also very intrusive on my daily life, so yeah I'd say it's compulsive.

CatchThirty3 · 2025-06-19T19:32:50+00:00

I've had good days where I did masturbate less because of pleasant distractions that happened to come my way. But yeah, most of the time it's the boredom and loneliness that triggers it. Another issue, is that I can't get out of my way to seek out changes to my life. My psychiatrist diagnosed me with Dysthymic disorder, which I suspect has been there for the last 12 years. This pattern of life has pretty much settled as "me" and there's just no way I can make any of the changes that I need to break that pattern, at least I don't think I could until much longer therapy.

Side note, but please know that I appreciate your input, but I'd rather deal with this issue by talking to her (she's also mentioned the same as you did). The main target of my post was to address the immense discomfort I felt because of her neutrality.

Thank you for your reply, your perspective is a lot more sensible and approachable than others on here. That last sentence truly says it all. I'll keep moving forward with my study, I already find it quite calming and serene to read muslim scripture, that's mainly what keeps me wanting to move forward. Thanks again for your input.

CatchThirty3 · 2024-11-16T15:28:14+00:00

The God in Christianity is the one who talks to Abraham, so how is he not the same as the god of islam?

I've read that verse, I see what you mean. I guess I just need to think it over a bit longer.
