Roof linetypes

Anonymous — Tue, 23 May 2023 13:15:16 GMT

Hi all,

We have an ArchiCAD 11 drawing template set-up with 5 stories (for a 2 storey home) so they are set up as:

* Sub level (-02c - 0c)
* ground floor (0c - 30c)
* sub level / roof (30c - 32c)
* upper floor (32c - 60c)
* roof (60c and above)

This has several advantages and works really for us and the types of homes we design and build.

One issue I'm having though is that when I drawn the roof on the sub level / roof story I want to be able to see that roof from the upper floor story and the ground floor storey so I change the floor plan display so it can be seen on both stories.

The problem I'm having is that I want the roof to show as a dash-dotted linetype on the ground floor story and solid line on the upper floor. I can't seem to get that to work, it shows up as a small dashed line instead.

The roof shows up as the correct linetype on the sub level / roof and as solid on the upper floor however.

I've attached a picture of my current settings to help diagnose this problem

Your help is appreciated.

I think the dialog box you are looking for to control the line types for multi story display is found at Project Preferences > Construction Elements.
