For overlapping lines, you would have to select all lines and check the listing in your concept explorer. I believe you can scroll/select the line in the explorer and the line will turn red by itself so you can see which one it is. For gaps, there are two approaches. You can just project all lines to a working plane. Most likely you drew stuff without work plane enabled in snaps. The alternative is to inspect the end points or redraw it with work plane enabled. Hope this helps.

Hello Tim, I want to buy your ViaCad tips book (in hard copy). Do you work or do you expect to work for a new edition included the Version 9?? In this case I will wait for this..in other case I will order the book via Amazon!
