Make windows appear like white boxes?

[Anonymous238]

Trying to make these windows appear like white outlined boxes for this view - tried everything I could in vg setting. Is there an easy way of doing this and not a tedious one? Thanks

So you just want the opening to show basically? Can you just hide the windows entirely? The opening should still be there.

When I hide the windows there's no white boxout - I just tried invisible lines on them and its ok but not showing the cut line

What do you mean by "white boxout"? The image below is two windows right next to each other. The one on the right is hidden. The opening and the cut lines are still there. Is that not what you're looking for?

Is that the OOTB Fixed.rfa Window?  If so, try this:

Thanks but now I would like for the default double hung revit window (circled in blue below) to appear like the default fixed window (circled in red below) when cut and frame/glass turned off in vg. How do I do this?

[mhiserZFHXS]

Just to help me understand, why do you want it to look like that? Having no background lines representing the bottom of the opening implies that the opening goes all the way down, meaning a door opening. I'm concerned you are falling into the trap of aesthetics-over-clarity.

Its a framing plan and I need to match another set of graphic standards

Anyone? I'm willing to leave a tip - message me for venmo

Adjust the View Range Bottom/Depth Distance.

Hah that easy thanks! Doesn't work in some views but invisible lines seems to work
