Sliding door wall contour - cannot find the setting

Hi,

 

I cannot seem to find where to set the wall contour in the Pocket Door 25 object:

I want to set the inside thick contour to a more subtle pen.

It's neither the Wall, neither the Composite setting, and I cannot seem to track it in the object settings.

Wall settings:

Composite settings:

I'm not spamming the thread with all the object setting pages, but there isn't anything set to this pen.

Anyone any ideas? It's driving me crazy...

Try Door Settings > Internal Door Settings > Door Settings an Openings > and check Pocket Frame to get the pen setting to work. This is AC24, so hopefully has not changed in AC25.

Look at Door Settings > Internal Door Settings > Floor Plan and Section > Frame, this pen seems to control the pocket lines. This is AC24, so hopefully has not changed in AC25.

Thanks @David Maudlin,

 

Unfortunately it's not the solution.

It is pen #27, that is being used, but no pen is set to this one in the object setting (I went through the GDL parameters too, nothing is using this pen):

Based on your object (I'm using the INT version) it should appear as a 0,05mm thick black line (#20 pen).
