simple steel joist problem

[domer1322]

can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong ?    Look at the attachment to see a simple steel joist and the settings I've used.  It renders (in OpenGL and RW) with a solid web instead of just showing the members ... almost as if it is a combination of the open web joist and a solid steel beam.

Hi @domer1322! Just had a quick look at the PDF file showing the issue, tried to replicate as best I could on my end but to no avail. Is it just this file that contains this issue or does it happen on other files? I would recommend to place a support request and a copy of the file over at https://customers.vectorworks.net/support.

Need to use the Framing Member Tool in the Detail Tool set.  For whatever reason, Using the Create Joist Tool in the AEC Menu does not show correct unless using wireframe or hidden line.
