Overriding Graphics in a symbols Legend

[tstewart]

Graphics override is not showing all elements of door/window as demolished. How to show all elements as demolished?

Hard to tell.  Share those door and window families here.

Families are Windows & Doors.

I did some tests about this issue, I guess you are using legend view to make door/window shown as demolished by "Override Graphics in View-by Element", I redo this issue.

After some tests, I found the function "Override Graphics in View-by Element" can fully affect Elevation view direction, but partially Floor Plan view direction. The graphic override of the other parts seems to be controlled by other method. But there are on "Legend Components" in VG.

I found a alternative way to override the legend components, make all of the elements into a Selection, and use a Selection filter to override the graphic, and it will work.

Additionally, make sure to override both projection and cut lines, they control different parts of the elements. And I think its the reason why "Override Graphics in View-by Element" can only affect parts of it, for there is only projection lines override function in it.

I have a working solution.
