Does anyone know how I could get just the lines along the outermost outline of the 
entire polyhedron?  For instance, consider a vertical cylinder.  The approach 
described below would show the outline of the two circular faces, but there would be 
no vertical edges representing the body of the cylinder.  I need a solution that shows 
the entire outline of the 3d shape, as well as (possibly) the face boundaries, but 
none of the interior edges.

Thanks
