This has been discussed elsewhere. There were all sorts of issues to do with how Walls functioned under the hood that needed dealing with in order to move forward + allow them to be developed (to do many of the things that people often complain they can't do: stacked walls, sloping walls, etc). Previously a wall was drawn in 2D + the 3D element extrapolated from that + this involved all sorts of tedious trickery that got more + more complicated as enhancements were introduced (wall closures etc). Now Walls are drawn in 3D + the 2D derived from that. Perhaps @Matt Panzer could give a fuller explanation + correct anything I got wrong.

Just on this point you can actually edit Door/Window styles via a Worksheet if you replace (for example) ='Door'.'Width' with =Style.'Width'.

I'm not sure why VW Support suggested using Data Vis rather than setting the Detail Level to Low. As far as I'm aware you can't do anything useful in terms of hiding Wall components using DV.

There are many other posts about this. To hide the Wall components in VW2026 you need to set the Detail Level to Low. Fortunately we can now also control how Doors + Windows display at Low Detail.

Aha of course I had a feeling I was missing a trick. And using emojis all the desired characters are there: ✔️ !↑ !↓

In the case of a styled Wall you need to edit the style + click on 'Edit Wall Attributes...' + specify the Attributes Below Cut Plane class in the 'Wall Attributes' dialog.

If you set up an IFS statement you can get a checkmark using the font 'Wingdings 2' or up/down arrows using 'Wingdings 3' but I can't see a way to combine the two in the same column or include an exclamation mark with the arrow. The IFS statement will display different text based on the values you tell it + there are a number of different options you can choose from within the different fonts, I just don't know how to get it to show the specific characters in your example. I'm sure someone else will have some ideas about it!

Hard to say without seeing your settings. Do you have 'Fixed cell width' enabled?

I'd like this too.

Plus there's the 'Rotation' parameter in the OIP.

I always place mine in VP Annotations and that way they are the right way up regardless of the VP rotation.

@Benson Shaw do you need to check whether the same has happened with other resources e.g. Favorites etc?

This happens when you remigrate I.e. you already have the files in your user folder + you run Migration Manager again. So yes just delete the 'original' versions.

I am surprised we're provided with an option to turn off the 3D/Shaded version of the feature but not the planar version.

The colour should be whatever colour you're drawing in (whatever's in the Attributes palette). It's giving you a preview of what the finished object will look like.
