Window/Door 3d opening line pen - Model view options

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi All,

I would like to control "Show Opening Lines in 3D Projections" for doors and windows through Model View Options, however there is no option here to control the pen for this through model view options.

If I choose "Override Model View Options" within the settings of an individual window or door, there is an option for "2D & 3D opening line pen"

How can I control this pen for opening lines in 3D and elevation without overriding model view options?

Thanks in advance

I would say there is an error on the scripting of the MVO (Library Globals).
The 2D swing lines have an option for the pen, but not the 3D swing lines.

Either that or the colour option in the door and window objects should not be locked (greyed out) when MVO settings are being used.

Thanks Barry, hopefully this is fixed soon. Quite frustrating not being able to utilise model view options and control opening line pens concurrently.

Be sure to lodge a support ticket with your local support so they can then log it a as request to fix (I would call it a bug).
