Hatching in floor plan and section

archanom — Mon, 03 Apr 2023 17:38:19 GMT

Hello. I have my new walls and elements in the renovation tool set to a hatch. However, I would like to see hatching of walls in floor plan, but not in section. Is there a way to do this?

Hi, you can create a graphic override that has the fill of selected elements with any color and fill (hatch) you need.

Hmmm. Well, I am not sure how to make a wall show differently in plan vs. section. When I do a graphic override it effects both the plan and the section.

You can have a different graphic override in every single plan in the view map, either in plan, section, elevation and or 3d view.

Thanks. I hadn't worked with graphic overrides really. I finally figured out the combination and that worked. Thanks again.
