Editing Section Markers

[Anonymous]

I edited the attached Section Marker & saved it, but the edited 2d symbol doesn't come across into the full view or the preview. Not sure what I did wrong and can't find anything here or on the wiki that is specific to this.

Thanks in advance.

Jeff,
I see the marker in both the full view and the preview window when I open up the detail marker object. Could you be more explicit as the what and where you are not seeing it?

I can see the edited symbol in the 2D Symbol window, but not in the others.

Any further help from anyone?

I'm confused, Jeff. Your object looks like a partial section marker, but it is subtyped as a detail marker and only works with the Detail tool.

There is already a partial section marker like that in the library, so I assume you don't really want a section marker? But, I'm a little lost as to why one would use it for a detail marker.

I see the 2D symbol just fine in the full view and preview, just as Erika did.

So, I'm really not sure what you're after either. Write many words and post many pictures.

Here's my step-by-step:

1 choose the section marker on the FP.
2 open the marker with "Open Object"
3 click on the 2d symbol (see 1st pdf)
4 edit the symbol
5 close 2d symbol (nothing changes)
6 save object (see dialog box pdf)
7 go into Section Selection Settings & select the new marker I saved --see next pdf
8 The marker does not change even on redraw or rebuild.
9 weep uncontrollably

Thanks for the help.

Hi Jeff,

In order to your 2d symbol show up on the FP you will have to comment (put a ! (exclamation mark) on the beginning of each and every script line) or delete all the scripts in the the master script window.

HTH.
