Hi, Can someone tell me how to show windows in floor plan so that the casing is showing? The photo attached is without the casing. Cheers Scott

Detail level of window 2D symbol is set up in modelview options.

It's a good idea to have several set up for different scales / level of detail / stage of design. You can set up saved views for those scales / stages etc with scale, layercombination, modelview options, pen sets, dimension styles, etc.

Our company template has twenty odd or so of different modelview options to take a project from preliminary all the way to construction documentation (and some specials for fire safety, regulations zoning, etc), just to give you an idea.

Thank you Erwin, I can't find the controls in model view options to be able to show the window and door casing/architrave. Maybe you could point that out. Attached ids the dialog box I am looking at. Cheers Scott

Are the settings you want in the "Detail Level..." section of the MVO settings?
