Hi All,
Stumbled across this problem and I'm at a loss as to how to deal with it, other then manually overriding.
the problem is this:
In order to get accurate glass sizes for doing take offs and bill of materials i shaped my curtain wall extrusions to look similar to my companies product but have cut outs to line up with where the glass needed to sit (see picture 1). This worked great for glass sizes as well as just the over all look I needed. The problem came up when i started to clean up the line weights, The line weight of the track completely buries the line weight for the glass. I know I could manually run around and hide lines or reduce the line weight on the few lines of the profile I need but this seems like a wasted effort.
The questions I have pertaining to this are this, can I create a profile that doesn't need me to create voids in the profile to show Revit where to start and stop the glass? OR can I create a way for revit to know that "these lines" don't need to be show/weighted on my plans?

Play with the highlighted values in the attached screenshot
In your Mullion Profile family, select the lines that you do not want to display and under Visibility Settings, select Coarse, Medium or Fine Detail Level.
@Anonymous: What scale are you using? This is all about model line weight, and model line weight has different thicknesses depending on the view scale. Do you get what I mean? IMO, the head/jamb extrusions are over-modeled. Save this LOD for ADs or CDs, and use a simplified representation in the main model. You can still pull accurate QTOs.
