Story display in section

[Tom Krowka]

Nice new feature; display story levels in section (story levels in section). Is there any way to show some levels and turn others off?

also, what is Story handle marker custom settings, and how do I activate it. It's stays greyed out no matter what I do.

It's in the Story Settings... the little checkboxes that seem to have to other purpose.

The custom settings never appear because there is no graphical interface for them.

You need to set them to Display & Output, not just Display Only. Do that in the 'Show Story Levels in this Section' setting under the General tab of the Section/Elevation Settings dialog.

Custom story handle is at the bottom of the section/elevation settings dialogue box.

Thats a good question. Mine Stay grayed out as well. This is from the help menu so it looks like we are out of luck until a smarter marker is made.

Section/Elevation Story Handle Custom Settings Panel
This panel is active if the Story Handle Marker object (selected in the Stories on Section Panel) contains a relevant GDL script.

I might use this new feature if I had any control over how is looks. I guess I can show only and add my level markers as I have done in the past. Some day I might use it

Hi y'all
So just to clarify: the marker is otherwise unedditable? ie the greyed out settings cannot be activated unless there is another marker available other than the basic one?

My problem is I want the story marker to display a different refference level, NOT to project 0 but to one of the other reference levels. Is that possible, or am I just dreaming of an easier life?

cheers
