Window-in-wall: changing "sash width offset" causes incorrect 2d view

[line-weight]

I've spent two or three hours today trying to work out which settings were making windows on a horizontal section display incorrectly.

On the left is OK, on the right, lines which should be thin elevation lines are showing as thick cut-plane lines.

 

 

Eventually I seem to have worked out that if, under "Jamb and Sash" settings, I change the "sash width offset" to something other than zero, this is the cause.

 

Unless there's something I'm missing I think this must be a bug.

 

 

Example file attached below.

Also: is this intended behaviour?

I set the jamb to have a red fill and sash to have a yellow fill under "2D visualisation":

 

 

And I get this:

 

So the jamb has the red fill applied to the part of it that's in elevation, as well as the sectioned part.

The sash has the yellow fill applied only to its sectioned parts.

 

File attached again.

Hmm I hadn't realised it did this. I normally use a Sill + then it looks like this (on right):

 

 

On the few occasions I haven't included a Sill, because all my components are white in 2D I must have failed to notice the extra lines...

 

For example this Velfac window doesn't have a built-in sill + I realise now it is showing extra lines...

 

 

That's annoying. Thanks anyway for pointing it out!

I wonder if there is some messy workaround with a sill that's only visible in horizontal sections.

Have only tested quickly but you can enable the Sill, set all the values to zero + assign the Sill to an invisible class + get this:

I see - then Iose the elevation lines of the bottom of the window opening but I guess they can be sorted with a manually drawn sill.

You can turn on Wall Lines to get them
