AC12 Custom Door Masking a Penetrating Beam

[Anonymous]

Hi,

First post here. I've been building a model in Archicad 12 (Student Version) for a school project. I have created a custom object as a door, and these doors are arrayed in a certain sequence. These objects are penetrated by beams. When viewed in 3d, the beams disappear where they pass through the excavated mass of the door objects. Is there a way to have the door objects not mask the beams?

Thanks,

Charles

Hi Charles,

Try increasing the intersection group number for the beams' layer so that it's larger than the one of the walls in which your doors are placed.
