Curtain Mullion Graphic Override in View Template

steezzen — Thu, 23 Oct 2014 15:24:10 GMT

I'm trying to set up a view template for wall sections that will show all cut lines and patterns as blue. I've used the override settings in the view template for all model elements, however this overide is not applying to curtain wall mullions. They still show as the default black. If I override the detail level to coarse, the color override works, but I lose the detail of the mullion. Is there anyway to keep the detail of the mullion and override the color as well?

Sounds like you have a Detail Component in the Mullion family that gives you the "Fine" detail. If that's true, you'd need to override the "Detail Items" to also show the blue lines. If the Detail Component is using a Sub-Category, like the Detail Lines inside it are "Medium Lines", you can just override that Sub-Category under "Detail Items".

Thanks for your response, atiefenbach.

It was indeed a detail component with the mullion. Thank you!
