Door Style does not obey class override?

[Ramon PG]

Not sure how to make a door obey the class override (dashed) in a viewport.

 

Thanks

Are you using VW2022 as per your signature or VW2023?

In VW2023 I am finding that the changes to the attributes of the Door container class are having no effect...

In VW2022 it works fine however.

 

 

 

 

 

 

PS: Is it only me or can we no longer double-click on an image we've inserted in a post to resize it?

I am using 2022. It has to do with objects being styles, and all the sub-classes but I haven't deciphered yet.

I assume all classes are set to ‘door class’ in the door?
 

Related but not, we need an option in the door to show the swing dotted but the door leaf closed.

 

anyone else find this useful?

 

sorry to invade your post @Ramon PG

Example of the sort of Door graphics we would like to be able to deliver...

 

[Tom W.]

Without jambs?

[shorter]

Indeed. Early stage or 1:200 plans. Set LOD to low in viewport…

No dice. My doors are set to "Door Class" in the door styles and "Door-Main" in the Navigation Classes.

@Ramon PGHi Assume you are not using windoor, all the components are set to <door Class>. if you make a new class called door swing and change the class in the Door Settings you will be able to change it in the viewport.

 

Door leaf closed??? may have to draw a swing separate. Will look further into it.

Another option is set the 2D attributes for the Door to 'By Object'. Then all the elements will take on whatever overrides you apply to the 'Door-Main' class.
