Steel Beam fill will not show in section

Anonymous
Not applicable
Refer to attachment - I have used the same steel beam object to create two different beams: BEAM A and BEAM B. The cut fill for BEAM B does not show. Initially I had the Cut Fill for both beams set to "Air Space"; when the fill in BEAM B did not show I changed the Cut Fill to "% 100" but the fill still does not show. What have I missed?

Dear Michael,

If you would like to change the surfaces, fills or lines of an object, you need to check the „Override Object’s Attributes” checkbox. There are a number of settings that can cause this issue, but based on your attachment, this will solve your problem. Best,
