CS1 Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Why is it if you create a roof face, and class the roof, it wont take on the class fill and line types as specified by the class until the embeded object (say a rectangle) has the same class? Discrition In top/plan view Roof Face created from rectangle Roof Face in class: "roof" "roof" class set to grey fill and blue outline Roof Looks White with Black outline Double click on roof face Get rectangle in "none" class and put in "roof" class Exit, looks fine.

Gerrit Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Your rectangle seems to have been created while None was the active class. Did you change that to Roof prior to the Create Roof Face command ? If so, I too get a Roof Face object in the Roof class, without the attributes. My MO is to keep the None class active. After the roof face is created, I throw it into the Roof class (OIP) : the preset class attributes will now show and the embedded rectangle automatically goes into the Roof class as well. Hope I've made myself clear enough. Quote Link to comment
CS1 Posted June 2, 2008 Author Share Posted June 2, 2008 Thanks Gerrit, I understand what you mean. I always have my active class set to "none" and after I have created an object I send it to its respective class, but this didnt seem to change the class of the rectangle within the roof space as suggested. I know with say "groups" if you send the group to a class the embedded objects change with it. Quote Link to comment
