COGO point display

Hi, maybe the question will look a litle easy but it's been giving me trouble for the last 3-4 hours. I have those COGO point. Some are manhole, some are ground level, etc. So I used point group property to turn all point invisible at first, setting no display and then I would create another point group for the manhole and have my manhole display for those point. My problem is that even if I do this, my cogo point still ALL appears, and they scale themself when I zoom out, so I get alot of big funny green point all over the place. I tryed all I could think off... and the funniest thing is that, even if they show up in the draw, i can't select them unless I use the prospector !

Any idea on this? Thanks.

Graphics card issues maybe? Is it the Point Label of the Point Market style you're having problems with? Can you post a couple of Screenshots showing the settings in the offending Style?

Just to mention, I had to use the prospector to selection the point... else it simply display itself (with dynamic scale) but you can't select it..

OK. It would help to see the Style definition it's self. Specifically the Marker Tab and the Display Tab.

Well, maybe I didn't understand clearly your question but, since it's the " no display " stile definition, I can't display it's definition...

In the Prospector right click on the style and select Properties. In the Default Styles area click on the Edit button (blue with pencil to right of style). Take screen shot of the Market Tab and the Display Tab.

In the Default Styles area click on the Edit button "

am using the  " no display " style here. I don't see the link between the two thing ?

Using the no display, I can't edit anything, The point should have no mark nor label... usualy it works.. but not this time (well it worked fine but then my draw crashed, I had to recuperate it, then this happens).

OK. That looks like a default style from an OOTB template (at least it started there). It may be because of the template, version or country pack. I didn't have a default No Display style so I created my own.

 

My only thought is that you could create a new no display style with a slightly different name and see if that one will work. Hopefully someone who has experience with the default style will respond and be able to help you.

Allen, they are using the <none> option, not a No Display style....

 

M_RR, have you performed a REGEN after changing the points to the point group?

Can you post the drawing here? Or make it available for download through Dropbox or Autodesk 360?

I did delete all my point, then I updated all my group point. After this, I regenerated the model, then imported the point again, and now everything seems to work... I guess it was some kind of bug? Thanks for the help!

With regards to the points displaying when they shouldn't I am wondering if you went into prospector, right-clicked on the Point Groups title, selected Properties and noted if your no display point group was listed above the All_Points group. The point groups have a drawing order hierarchy that is controlled here.

 

I also wonder if you right clicked on the Point Groups heading in Prospector and selected Update after making your new point group. If you do this again and select refresh this time the point group get listed in prospector to match the hierarchy in the properties dialog.

Yes I had checked the priority order for the point group, and I did update all point afteward.... and I also made sure the group contained the good point...
