Override object's pen in different view?

[davidstonearchicad21]

Is it possible for the items of furniture in 2D to appear differently depending on view or layout?

The scenario is keeping the appearance of the furniture as is across most of the plans but using a thinner lighter pen for them in the RCPs so they don't overpower the drawing and make the electrical layout unclear.

My untested idea is to place a 75% white fill over the hotel unit, bring the electrical items and the walls to the top leaving the furniture beneath ghosting them out. But i'm wondering if there's a less hacky way to do it and one that works well with hotlinked modules?

Thanks

Sounds like a typical application for a Graphic Override.

Is there a reason that won't work? What else?

If you have dedicated pens for your furniture objects (probably not) then you can create a new pen set with lighter/thinner pens and use that in your RCP views.

Graphic Override is the one. Really awesome.

Set our layer containing all the furniture and fittings with a Graphic Override rule and applied it in the view settings for our RCPs. It was a very fast and painless exercise. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
