Howdy,
I have a 3D joist object, based on one of the joists from the library. My goal is an object that can be placed in plan and show the proper 2D representation for dimensional lumber, blocking, etc. when viewed in section. The object looks fine when first placed but when the S/E window is rebuilt the infill lines, generated from flat planes within the BRICK that defines the joist outline, display a second black line, behind and thicker than the line defined in the parameters. Interestingly this does not happen with the zero depth section option. I’ve included the 3D script below. Any clue? Thanks.
