Hi
I'm Drawing a casement window family. Instead Of having the symbolic lines representing the swing in the family I prefer to create a nested detail Item for the swing (it prevents clutter in the host fam.) My Issue Is that even though the line style of the swing in the detail Family is 1/32" dash, it does not carry over into the host family; I end up with a much more coarse line style. I have tried to create new subcategories and try to overwrite but it does not seem to have any affect. How can I control the line style of a nested symbolic line?

The Detail Item is a nested family; you can only change its style/pattern in the Project and the Detail Item family itself.

I took your way I just did it as a nested generic model instead of nested detail Item
thanks
Try to turn off the the option "draw in forground" for the symbolic lines
