I need to produce detail sections of a slab/wall connection and would like to set the slab's composite structure to use a specific pen color for one of its skins (the DPC) so that it is not affected by the Graphic Override I am using for detail drawings (which turns every pen color to black). I have failed so far, so I was wondering if GO rules can't pick a specific skin separator line within a composite structure or if I am missing something here.
Any help will be much appreciated.
This is what my section looks like without GO:
I would like all colors to be black (through GO) except for the DPC lines, which I would like to remain in red. This isn't happening though:
This is my GO rule:
Solved! Go to Solution.

Unfortunately, currently, Graphic Overrides affect the whole element.
One possible solution to this situation would be to create a Pen Set for this purpose, in which Pen Set the Pen of the skin you don't want to be overridden would keep its Pen, while most other Pens would be Black (or White if they are background Pens.)
