Hi Aritz,
You are not doing anything wrong — currently the silhouette edges are “immune” from the depth-cuing fog, and there is no option to also fade them.  It has been requested by a few users, but there is no option yet, sorry.

I have a structure with the silhouette true option and now I want to change the depth cueing to obtain a slice of the structure but with some of the fog coming from the background. The cartoon color disappear gradually as expected, however the black line of the silhouette is 100% or nothing, is there anything I am doing wrong or is it what I should expect? Is there anyway to obtain also that smooth disappearing of the silhouette?
