elevation detail

[Anonymous]

how do i control the level of detail of my elevations? (example the elevation of a railing is full of lines that simulate 3d that i don't want in my printing). Any Idea? Thanks

All we need in my case is a separate pen colour for the side skirt of a mesh so that can be white and leave the top surface with a coloured pen effectively leaving a ground line only.

Barry:

For my elevations, I am cutting only through the Mesh, so in the Elevation Selection Settings dialog box I am setting Model Display > Cut Elements > Cut Fill Pen to white, which leaves the grade line, but masks all below it (the Cut Line Pen is the grade line). If the Mesh is the only item being cut this should work.

Thanks David.
That would work.
I hadn't actually thought of that as my meshes are not being cut by the section.
But I can change that.
