Trying out v2024... but

[Ramon PG]

 

How can I get the Graphic Legend to measure only the doors, not the opening?

 

How can I find the B-1 door that has no number?

 

 

Thanks

In the 'Define Legend Image' dialog set the vertical + horizontal dims to 'Leaf/Sash'.

Thanks for the reply.

 

First item: fixed.

Second item... the B1 door has no number so I cannot find it in the drawings with a right-click like we can in the Worksheets. I don't have any 6'0' solid leaf doors.

Also... 3 doors with the same door number.

Also... adding to my confusion the Graphic Legend shows the 6'8" door height of the Door Style regardless of the edited door height of some items which is 7'0" and appears as such in the Door Worksheet. So one needs a different style for different door heights? 

 

Conclusion: The Door Graphic Legend does not seem very practical for me.

I would either:

• Create a quick report then find the mystery Door that way.
• Use Custom Selection to find the Door.
• In the criteria for the Graphic Legend include 'Field Value On Schedule is True' then it will return only Doors which have 'Include on schedule' enabled.

But that Door must exist somewhere in the drawing for the GL to be finding it.

Presumably this means you've got Doors in the drawing with duplicate IDs - so you need to find them + renumber them or delete them or whatever no? The Graphic Legend will just search for whatever you tell it to look for.

Don't really understand what you're saying: all the Doors in the GL are measuring 7 foot high not 6 foot 8...?

Thanks again for the reply

 

 

Sorry about the last item confusion, I edited the styled door dimension as I commented and the GL then showed it.

 

Also... the GL will not show the symbol geometry as the worksheet will? Another puzzle. (4'x7' door)

 

 

 

Below... found how to delete the phantom doors from the GL. As to where are they in the drawing, that's another matter.
