I've created a door object, but for some reason the wall contours for the hole aren't showing. The weird thing is, this is the third door object I've created, and the other two show the wall hole contours just fine.
I can't figure out what I've done differently.
Any clues?

One possibility, look at main Library Part Window > Details > Compatibility Options... > Switch off 3D contour.
You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.

Thanks David. That setting was checked, but un-checking hasn't given me the contours.
Cheers

If the 3D Script of the door uses the WallHole command, then the edges have status codes that control edge visibility. If that is not the case, you can zip the door part and post it here for others to look at.
Thanks for adding your AC version to your signature.

No WALLHOLE command used. But the contours are working now. Didn't do anything...they just decided to work.
