I totally agree with Patrick. The hybrid approach in SE is very powerfull. In V15 you can use Çreate 3D'. Drafting is stronger than in SW as far I know. I use SE a lot, SW much less and I don't have Inventor.
I like SE the best.

first make a NEW line style almost as discribed by fwc
1. Select Format>Style, the Style Dialog box will appear.
2. Choose NEW give it a name "Visible Red" based on "Visible"
3. From the ‘General’ tab set the colors.
4. Close the new linestyle.
5. Select de Drawing View.
6. Properties (RMB)...
Two possible ways
Why not open a new assy, set the first assy as a subassy in the new file. And that subassy again in the new assy?
Your new assy contains also 2 times the same subassy.
Create a circular pattern and use 180 deg.
IE gives also with other appications problems. Our reseller of administration software FORBIDS the use of IE 6^
jwillison why don't you use the quadro drivers?
Hi All
Don't forget the aftesales. Inventor would be a bit cheaper in buying (in my situation), but ask also the prices for surport and training. I didn't believe that.
SE was and is very costum friendly toward me. Support is very very and again very cheap.

Yes it is outside SE. I use WinNT. Go to START then RUN and type REGEDIT a new program starts.
On the left side you find the HKEY_CURRENT_USER and under that the key SOFTWARE.
REGEDIT is tricky. So it is a good thing to save it first.
REGEDIT
REGISTER
EXPORT
Because I have NT in Dutch the last...
If you want to restore default toolbar on SEVx try to open with regedit the following key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Unigraphics Solutions\Solid Edge\Version x\ToolbarSettings
Just DELETE the subkey "Version" (usually with value = 14) and the job is done on next SE restart.

Your graphics board does not refresh frequently. you can look at the properties of the card (how much memory?). Look for a new driver or ask your reseller. (the way)
You can always hit F5 to refresh your screen (bad way)
