Hi I'm new here and I'm also new to ArchiCAD. I currenlty have ArchiCAD 9 and have a problem with elevations! Whenever I open the elevation some lines I don't want to see(like the edge lines of slabs for example) appear in the elevation! The lines make the drawing look very untidy and confusing! I used to create empty fills to cover up these lines but the process is becoming annoying and you have to create fills for each section line! Can anyone help b/c it takes up alot of time to neaten up the drawing!

Sunstar:

For the lines between slabs and walls to be automatically removed, you need to ensure that:

1. The face of the wall and the face of the edge of the slab are in the same plane.
2. The bottom of the wall and the top of the slab are the same height (or the top of the wall and the bottom of the slab).
3. The face of the wall and the edge of the slab are assigned the same material.
