Partial Structure Display Problem

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello everyone,

I'm using two different set of views as described in the attached image. The problem is that the wall tops in doors are missing when the Partial Structure Display is set to Core Only or Without Finishes.
It seems to me that it can't deal with the turn plaster option using Wall Finish Skins when the view isn't set to display the entire structure.
Can someone tell me if this is one of those bugs you have to patch?
If this is the case this is something that should be addressed as soon as possible.

Thank you very much in advance.

Sorry Laszlo, I didn't see your reply. So do you think this is a bug?

Can you save the Wall into a new file with Save As?
Then clear all other elements, Stories, Sections/Elevations etc. unused Attributes, the whole Layout Book and Publisher Sets, all Views except for the two Views used here.
Make it as small a file as possible.
Then save it as PLA and post it here in a ZIP.
I will take a look to see if the problem comes on my machine too.

Hi Laszlo,

I'm unable to make such a small file so that I could post it here even if it's compressed.
I've uploaded the file to the following links:

or

I hope you can find out something!

Thank you so much for your availability

What I found is that it is the Reveal option you are using which is causing this.
With the other, simpler Reveal options, the lines are there.
Maybe the Library Part is not written in a way to take this case into consideration.
I would say this is a bug in the script of the Library part.
There is no workaround I can think of. I could not find a combination of parameters that would work either.
I will report this to GS.
