Beam selection only shows a centerline

Anonymous
Not applicable
I'm trying to build an arbor by creating beams across my columns. In the Beam Selection Settings dialog box / Floor Plan, I've selected a Solid Line for the outline, and a Dot & Dashed line for the centerline; Show Centerline is checked. But on the Floor Plan all that displays is the centerline -- no outlines of the beam. What to do?

Open Display Options and look at your selection for Beams. Probably says "Reference Line". Change it to "Entire Beam".
