AC25 MVO control issue with Light Object

Scott Bulmer
Booster

Something seems to be not working at least for me.  I am unable to use the MVO to control how lighting objects are displayed.  Please advise if I am doing something wrong or if this is a bug.  See the attached screenshots.  Thanks, Scott

You seem to be looking at the wrong section in the MVO.

Thanks Barry.  It appears that your MVO Dialog Box is different than mine in that you have a grouping Misc. Settings for AC 25 and I have Options for GDL Objects AC 16.  When open they also appear different.  Basically I got thrown off by the AC16 reference.  Hopefully this will be corrected soon.  Scott

 

Related but separate, I use the marquee/3D Document plan view technique for reflected ceiling plans however the MVO settings for light objects has no effect in that view.

Have a look at the libraries you have loaded.

Every library version will have its own MVO controls.

 

Because you see MVO for version 16 objects must mean you have the 16 library loaded (or maybe migration libraries).

If you have the 25 library loaded, you should see what I have shown.

I see you have detail level for stairs/rails and doors/windows, so I am not sure why you don't have options for GDL objects 25 as well.
