Feature Line Styles, Code Set Styles, and Data Referenced Corridors

[BrianHailey]

What am I missing here? I have a corridor data referenced into another drawing and I want to change the display of the feature lines in it. I don't want to go into the corridor properties and manually change the feature line styles so I change the styles in the code set style. Problem is, it doesn't change the corridor because it already has the codes assigned to the feature lines in the feature line tab of the corridor properties. Synchronizing the corridor doesn't help. Only solution I've found is to open the drawing with the corridor in it, Turn off all regions in the corridor properties, save the drawing, synchronize the corridor, go back to the original drawing, turn on all the regions, save the drawing, and synchronize again.

Seriously, what am I missing?

In the client drawing (the one with the corridor xrefed in to it) change which code set style is assigned to the corridor, regen (or is it synchronize?, any way, make the corridor update), then change back to the desired code set and regen/update, it should up date the code styles. I haven't edited a code set in for referenced corridor in after creating a reference in a while, hence the fuzzy on which update to use.

@cwr-pae It's even easier, you just need to switch to a different code set and then back. No regen/rebuild/synchronize needed. That's what I was missing.

Cool deal. The regen thing may have been from the initial implementation of xref corridors or some other, similar style display bug, main thing is we can get it to work almost right ;/

Fantastic! So simple. Thanks!

Haha, I had many people in my office stumble over this issue as well - it's something you just have to know I guess.
