Elevations showing items to be demo'd on New Renovation Filter?

Anonymous
Not applicable
Openings (door/window) are being demolished. However, on the elevation they are appearing as solid lines. Checked the "New" Renovation Filter Options, elements to be demolished are set to "Hide." Looked at Elevation Settings, Graphic Override Rules, and the settings for the Openings, and yet cannot find a solution to not show the demo'd items on the elevation.

How is it then I can get AC to NOT show items to be demolished on the elevation, when the renovation filter is set to New?

If your renovation settings for New Construction have an override for existing elements, it will display the existing elements as modified by the demolished elements. Thus, if you demo a door, and have an override on the display of existing elements, the door opening will show. If you turn off any override of existing elements (set to "Show"), then the opening will not show. That is essentially what happens when you change to "Project Completion" status.

For a quick fix, try the "Planned Status" filter.

The Existing conditions with "Override" was the cause. Set it to "Show" and that removed the Existing Items that are to be demolished.

Thank you
