Hi,

Barry, if you select the roofs and use Merge Elements, the lines will not appear in plan either.

Works with shells and roofs with shells. (and some more stuff)
Thankyou Erwin,

I still model ceilings seperately now and then, even with merge. Sometimes it just is more convenient.

I am a firm believer in there not being one definite solution for one single problem.

The view you used from the View Map has a certain layer combination used in its settings.
You must update that layer combination with your new layers or create a new layer combination and set that to be used in the view settings.

Never use a layer combination that says 'Custom'.
Same applies to anything else that shows as 'Custom' (pen sets, MVO schemes, etc.).

This might have what you are looking for.

Roof accessoires is an addon available from the ArchiCAD help menu download link. It also comes with a library, that will be installed on your harddrive in the ArchiCAD folder. You need to load this library along with the library you download from bimobject.com
