Hello,
I would like to solve the problem of changing the color of the door opening line. I would like to highlight only fire doors in red.
In AC28, I cannot find the option to individually change the color of the door opening line in the door library element. Is it possible that GS removed this option from AC28, which was available in previous versions, and that the door opening line can only be changed globally?
I can solve it with GO, but it does not give the correct result, because it also changes the color of the wall behind the frame, but GO does not change the color of the door's consignment sign...
On the left is the normal door, on the right is the fire door, where it would be good if the opening line was also red for better understanding of the plan...
Thanks for your help.

Mee too 🙂
What I meant was:
If Gabor sets the opening line of fire doors to a specific pen AND organize the pen sets with this specific pen in red (or not), the doors will have a red opening line (or not).
And yes, this is a crappy "Double Source of Truth" workaround...

I don't use those doors enough!
The door leaf pen you can control in the object itself.
The door swing pen is only in the MVO.
So you the pen set could be an option.

At least our german doors allow to override the MVO for "symbolic 2D".
And yeah, its a "Triple Source of Truth" 😂

So the German libpack might offer a solution then.

Uhmmm - no.
GS crippled this functionality with the LibPack system. But maybe reverting to monolithic libs is an option?
Left: Monolithic, right: LibPack AC29
Imho:
Type-based control is a MUST. MVO rulez! 😍
Instance-based override is a MUST. "Modelldarstellung überschreiben" rulez! 😍
GS is... ...kz! 😐
We (>100 seats) skipped 28. For I'm in the process of preparing the 29 template, I'm grateful that this thread confirms stickin' with the monolithic lib.
