door/window contour lines

funny behaviour with empty doors and windows:

empty windows = contour lines can be turned on and shown.
empty doors = no contour lines whatsoever.

is it just me, or is it another for the inconsistency list?

Ben,

I don't see any difference on my machine. I assume you are referring to the wall closure and sill/threshold lines in plan (the 3D contour setting hasn't been available in the settings dialog for years AFAIK). Remember that to display the threshold lines in the door opening you have to have a non-zero height to the bottom.
