Fill cut surfaces with: uniform surface

Anonymous
Not applicable
I just want the cut surfaces to show as black. They remain white when I try to change the surface in the section settings window?

I am having a similar problem. I set the fill cut surface to uniform surface and then black paint but yhen all the cut surfaces are shown with their own surfaces in stead of black... I understand there are workarounds to use but I´m very annoyed by the fact that this function simply is not working and I don´t know how to fix it.Capture.JPG
Hello,

Thank you very much for the question and I am very sorry about the issue!

If you are using Archicad 24, this is a known issue in our defect database, with the ID: DEF-1614. When "Uniform surface" setting for is chosen, cut surfaces are displayed as "Own Surface Colors (Non-Shaded)" instead. The workaround here is to use Graphics Override to replace all cut surfaces.

We expect to fix this defect in Update 3 of Archicad 24. I am very sorry for the inconvenience, and thank you very much for your understanding!

Best regards,
Minh
