Lost Detail in 2D window display

Anonymous
Not applicable
I have a 1/4" plan view set and a 1/8" plan view set. Last time I opened up my plan, all of my doors and windows had lost their detail, but only on the 1/8" plan view. I looked at the "2D detail level" in the window and door tool, and I see that it says "scale sensitive." Why did this all of the sudden happen? It is so frustrating! I've been working with this plan for months and it's been fine.

Please help.

What did you do in the meantime? Hotfix, changed library ... ?

What is the scale threshold that gives the detailed 2d look? It might be that it is 1/8" (whatever scale that is ...)

In the door/window GDL script.

If he is using the SE library it is available in the settings dialog. No need to open the script.
