Controling slab display

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello!
I was wondering how can someone control slab display when you choose the slab to visible on other stories. The slab is automaticly set to "hidden line" on all other stories.
I would want the slab to be on hidden line on the story below current, but I would like it also to be on continues line on the story above current.
How to control this?
Thanx 🙂

You can set the line type for elements on stories over and below the current, in the Project Preferences window (Construction Elements tab).

But the setting is general, for all elements on the whole project, not specific for Slabs (nor for the single Slab). So the same linetype will be used for Roofs, Objects, etc.

Yes.
Or, more exactly, a linetype for elements that are shown on the current story but reside on stories below, and another for elements shown on the current story but resident on stories above.
