Hi from Winnipeg, Canada:
I'm using ACAD R12 DOS and am having an unusual problem.  I have drawn a 
series of adjacent 3Dboxes, using 3d faces at the tops to hide the adjoining 
lines.  The 3d faces only hide the adjoining lines when they are elevated 
quite a bit above the surface of the 3d boxes.  The peculiar thing is that I 
have to keep raising them.  I raised them once, removed hidden lines and 
everything looked ok.  Then I added a little text and found that all the 3d 
faces needed to be raised higher yet as the lines were no longer hidden.  
I've had to raise them 2 or three times and they are now so high above the 
surface that the double lines are visible in the plots.  Is there a way to 
hide these lines without elevating the 3d faces?  Is there a setting that I 
don't know about?
