MEP Duct flanges

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I'm completely out of ideas really. Basically, I've got a load of ductwork, which all have flanges with extension of 50mm, which I want to be 30mm. Drawing new ductwork comes in at 30mm extensions, set through duct preferences. But changing existing sizes in the properties pallete, under advanced doesn't change the display, they're still 50mm. I'm using MEP 2011.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards

Ok,

I've just noticed in the 3D view, that they're showing as 30mm, but not in the plan view. If I change the insulation thickness, it redraws the flange in plan view to the correct size. Surely this can't be the way to get around this issue?

Many thanks

When in plan view type the command OBJRELUPDATE.  This will update the graphics settings for all mep items in the current drawing.  This will fix your problem.
