Objects floor plan display in a Hotlinked module

[Gerri]

Hey, everyone! I have a strange one, I think.

We had a floor plan drawn with grid elements on a different story. Then that was made into a module to be hotlinked in the same file, but the grid elements obviously showed up everywhere anew. Then the grid elements' visibility was changed, so they show up on all other floors, but not the one containing the hotlink module. After that, they were impossible to access and mend the error.

I can see this happening with other elements. Is there any way to access them, other than breaking up the module?

Thanks!

Operating system used: Windows 6003

Hmm, did you work it out?

I’m not sure the source of the non-editable error issue, but I believe grid-lines are a project level tool. I would not include them in a module creation.

In any case, one of the main benefits of using modules is the placement in multiple locations and/or orientation, so you would want to keep grid values out of the module.  

Hope this helps.
