Wall Contours

Srinivas
Enthusiast
I am new to Door - Window Builder ( V 3.5) from CAD Image and having some problem with the wall contours as in the attachment.

Can someone pull me out of this as I am unable to find out how to get the wall contours displayed correctly.

Also How to make certain settings as default for example:-

1) I want the Threshold to be switched off everytime.
2) Measure Reveal Exterior also to be off.

Thanks in Advance.

There is usually a parameter called Wall Contours. It controls the visibility of those missing lines. Its possible values are usually between 0 and 3.

it can be found under the Symbol>Plan View Items settings (see attached - you may have to 'Show more options' to get it to appear)

You can do this by creating a Default File of the settings you want saved (see the DWB User's Guide).
