SOLVED!

lines look different in plans and section with same pen set.

I have a strange experience don't know how it happened. Drawings show differently in section and plan with same pen set. 

When i make a new model with Archicad 27 template it does not happen but when i use the "latest project setting" its shows up like this! Graphic overrides where  off in both cases. 

 

It could be a problem with the template i had been using. How can i correct it? can i migrate the existing model into a file with default template? 

 

Kindly help!

 

Operating system used: Mac Apple Silicon 14 Sonoma

Have a look in the section settings.

You are probably using a 'Uniform pen for Cut Elements'.
