You always have to keep in mind that sketchy styles work with raster images that disappear when they are "far away" and are smaller than the pixel setting of your window. "Normal" styles work with vectors therefore they are always exactly one pixel wide and should always appear on screen no matter what the screen resolution is.

Hi Folks
I think I found the solution to my problem....so for anyone else that might have this problem perhaps this will help. Simple thing. In Styles menu in the primary box when 'edit' tab and the edges icon (first one), make sure the sliding bar for 'level of detail' is all the way over to the right.
That fixed my one hour search for a solution!!

Hope this helps
Cheers

Hmmm. I just changed a style when changing templates, and now have the vanishing line issue when far away (and some not-so-far away). I may have turned on sketchy lines at one point during this tinkering, but then how do you turn it off. I have gone back and can't find a 'turn-off' button. When I go back to "straight lines' does that automatically turn off the sketchy line command?- I am assuming 'no' since I seem to still have it going The lines are straight and look good except there are gaps and some are missing completely. I have s pent a lot of time going back and forth trying to find something to fix this...including the 'depth cue'. What am I missing?

Thanks very much for any help.

Hi Folks
I have never had much luck installing plug-ins, but now with 2016 make it doesn't work at all.
Using the extension warehouse from within Sketchup (as suggested) takes me to the web site and I get the download button instead of the install button. So I used that but then the .rbz file does nothing. My screen often does not come up with the same thing as is in the many tutorial videos I have watched trying to make this work. Perhaps I need a child version of the instructions?
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
