Sketchy stacking order of 2D fills in Interior Elevations when Teamworking?

[Mats_Knutsson]

Hi,

This is for AC23: (and older versions as well...can't tell about 24 or 25 since we use 19-23)

I draw a 2D fill in an interior elevation view and use display order to place it correctly. When a teammate opens the IE layout the display order is different. This is super inconvenient and I remember this problem from older versions as well...16, 17 something. It seems the display order is somewhat connected to settings on the client instead of the cloud!? I have no reminiscens of this happening with other views that IE.

Anyone else experiencing this? Workarounds? We've worked our way around this by assigning the task of creating the IE views/layouts to only one person (the person that did the 2D-fills) but in the large projects it's not a viable workaround.

Br,

Mats

Is this teamwork or solo projects? With teamwork you are sending / receiving?

[Mats_Knutsson]

Teamwork as the subject states 🙂

If I remember correctly the stacking order is only saved locally, meaning it will never be shared across different workstations in Teamwork.

If you think "this is a weird design decision" then you're absolutely right.

@Minh NguyenWasn't there some ongoing dev project to solve this problem?

No-one reads the topic, right? 😛

Design by forgetting some things and then not correcting.

In case you want to quickly check you can compare the Display order level of certain element if its the same for both users on teamwork, you may use Element information palete for that

As Runxel writes the display order is local. I hope @mnguyen will comment. The behavior feels like a bug and is highly irritating.

Haha even the sun has its spots 🙂

Dear Mats,

Thank you very much for reaching out!

With the help of our colleague, we think that this could be an old defect with Teamwork operation. I haven't been able to get an exact confirmation on it yet. Once I know more about it I will let you know!

Best regards,

Minh
