Hello everyone, I'm not sure what's going on but my knobs for my cabinets are not showing in 3D. Knobs are turned on with materials set, the 3D Detail Level of the cabinets is set to MVO, and the MVO settings for my 3D View are set to show all accessories, but they're not showing in 3D. Is there another setting somewhere I'm missing? Even if I set the 3D Detail Level for individual cabinets to Full they still do not show.
Thanks!

Hi,
Your template/file is corrupt.
It does not pass the value in the Model view option to the object, but it does store it.
I change the following library parts to work out where the error was.
the 0 is the "hide knobs value"
this shows a 1 for hide, but the stored value is a 0
when it is turned off it shows the 1.
this is a problem in the file, probably because you upgraded from an earlier version to AC24 rather than building from scratch.
if you open the file in 25 it fixes it.
you can then save the file down to 24, and the fix stays.
see attached file which was upgraded to 25 then saved down to 24.
if you save it down to 23 then open in 24 then the error reappears.
I hope your BIM Manager fixes the template.(or updates the Library so the knobs show up)

Yes I checked that, everything seems to be set up correctly but I'm still not getting knobs to show up.

Hello @ocamorlinga ,
What happens if you turn that setting off in the MVO ?
I believe in earlier AC, that option was hiding handles when that icon was ON but it switched to showing it at some point. There may be some conflict there.

With the setting turned off or on, the knobs don't show in 3D

Attached is a pln with the default cabinet from the A24 library, and our slightly modified cabinet. Both are not showing knobs in 3D, the MVO settings are turned on and both objects have their 3D Detail Level set to MVO, although even if I switch it to Full, it doesn't show the knobs.

I think i found it:
I did the following: I opened your drawing,
show 2d (F2)
select the 2 objects
press F5
select the two 3d objects and go to attributes
switch from MVO to Full

I did as you suggested, but the knobs are still not showing up.
I really appreciate your help! Could it be a Work Environment setting?

I think looks more like a libraries problem in the web server , because when I copy paste the object to a new fresh open Archicad window, it show complet
