Demolition Fill to be transparent on sections

Xavi — Thu, 20 Mar 2025 23:28:20 GMT

Hello.

Have a problem with the fills on Demolition on sections.

Everything on Demolition, New or Existent works perfectly on Floor-plans, but when I make a section they should behave the same...but doesn't.

The fill from Demolition Elements comes solid, and I would like to have transparent like the floors.

Please see the image attached.

Thanks

Hi,

You can check if:
1. you have a graphic override on that overrides the demolition plan in the section?

2. in the demolition plan menu, you can go to graphic override rules and see if these cut overrides are on/off:

Hope this helps.

Hi, thanks for your reply

1 - yes I have the GO active on the Section

2- Also yes the GO - Renovation Filter on Demolition have the cut option on.

Can you try also checking the cut fill overrides on the other options? See if that works.

It may also be dependent on the representation of the elements in your section.

Did try but doesn't work.

I even try to do a separate GO to override only the Demolition but didn't work.

And looks like the Demolition have priority on New...

Could it be a display order issue? Maybe the demolished element is behind the one represented with a dotted yellow line?

Can you move the object so that it does not intersect anything? see if the problem persists? If it does not, it may be an intersection problem, not a demolition GO problem.

Thanks CosminF.

I did move the element to see about the display order, but unfortunately didn't work.

In my case the main problem is that I can not have a transparent fill on the Demolished Element in section, even if I try to put "transparent fill" on Renovation settings the Archicad change to white and not transparent like in the floor plans.

I just don't get it why the program do a perfect work on floor plan on the Demolished Element but not on sections, when they are the exact elements...
