I have a strange problem. I have a model, called house.fcstd, that contains two arcs in addition to other geometry. The arcs disappear when I set the Draw Style Property to anything other than "Solid". In the same model, I created a Line object and had no problems setting the Draw Style property to dashed.
This seems to be related to the configuration of data in my model. I discovered this when I created another model, called TestArc.fcstd, that contains a single arc object. With this one, I do not have any problems setting the Draw Style property to Dashed.
So what is wrong with the house.fcstd model.

Re: Problems with Draw Style on Arcs
I have no problem with the house model either...
Maybe something wrong with your graphic drivers? Everything is up to date?
Re: Problems with Draw Style on Arcs
No issue either here.

Re: Problems with Draw Style on Arcs
Indeed, the problem is with my platform. I tested the behavior on a Windows box and a different Ubuntu box and found that the Draw Style worked correctly.
I tried updating the open-source drivers but the problem persisted which is not surprising given that the Mobo/Processor pair dates back to 2011.
Thanks for the help.
