Have you ever created an isometric view in Inventor and were disappointed to find that the view did not show interference edges or tangent edges? Here’s a tip that shows you a couple settings to get the desired result.

In the view below, I would like to show where the flanged pipe connects to the header.

Right-click the view and select Edit View.

Switch to the display tab in the drawing view dialog box.

Check Interference Edges & Tangent Edges and click OK.

Notice how the pipe now looks like it interferes with the header, and tangent edges are shown in the view.
