Ben3B Posted January 3 Author Share Posted January 3 I think the answer is somewhere here https://app-help.vectorworks.net/2024/eng/VW2024_Guide/Viewports1/Creating_section_viewports.htm but I can't find :( Quote Link to comment
line-weight Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Do you have "use original" selected here? That controls what any objects seen in elevation will look like. If you also want the objects to retain their colours where they are sectioned, you'll need to select this too: Quote Link to comment
Ben3B Posted January 3 Author Share Posted January 3 Hello @line-weight, Thank you !! You give me the way I'm going crazy ... I did the test in good way ( i think) be cause i wasn't able to do what I want in my file I open a blank one, but with the same result I was at phone and teamviewer with french hotline , who has to investigate And now I 'm back from lunch have a look to the forum , test your answer, on a fresh new file and, it works ... What have change is that I close vectorworks during lunch ... I 'm no able to do the same in my file but when saving style (with class and layer by instance) and apply to the other file it works... So I'm wrong somewhere But I don't no where . Thank you !!! :) Quote Link to comment
Ben3B Posted January 3 Author Share Posted January 3 Edit : I'm not totally nuts If I open first my file and then open a blank file and section create section viewport, it doesn't work But it work If I apply the viewport Style I've saved if I start from crash it works , I think, (one more time) I ve settings from 2023 somewhere in my file, I ve to redo my start template because it si from 2023 but I need time :) But it is strange that the settings apply on a blank file ...

Ben3B Posted January 3 Author Share Posted January 3 So It s over my capabilities ... ... attached 2 file , the viewport style named" don't work" , don't work in file "section viewportA" but work in file "section viewportB" section viewportA.vwx section viewportB.vwx Quote Link to comment
line-weight Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I think it's because you've got "display 2D components" turned on. So it is drawing the 2d component of the symbol rather than rendering directly from its 3d geometry. To make it coloured you either need to turn off "display 2D components, or edit the symbol's 2d component so that it has the colours you want. Quote Link to comment
