Door leaf not changing

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi everyone, this is my first post on the forum.

Up until very recently I was working on a project in Archicad 21. I have now updated to Archicad 22 and so, upon opening my project, I migrated the libraries.
My problem is this: door leaves are not showing up properly. By this I mean that no matter what type of leaf I choose (in my case I want to use the No Grid option), the door always appears full (i.e. the glass doesn't show up). This includes custom leaves too.
Previously existing doors were not affected, only the ones that I try to place now, and all door types have this problem.
I tried opening a different Archicad file (one that was also created with Archicad 21, and with migrated libraries) and the same thing happens, so it's not strictly related to the file.
What am I doing wrong? Should I not have migrated the libraries? Please help!!

Thanks in advance

Have a look at the level of detail settings in the model view options.
You will probably find you 3D is set to simple.

Hi Barry,
Thanks! Detail level was set to "by MVO". Changed it to Full and now it works. It was so simple I feel a little silly
Thanks again!

“By MVO” means it is using the global setting in the Model View Options dialogue.
Setting it to full in the object is fine, but it will only affect that one object.
Changing the MVO setting will change all of the doors set to use the MVO.
