1a)Yes, it’s a different file. I’ve sent permission to the dropbox file (it’s too big to upload or email) now to the email address you suggested.
1b/c) I can get most of this to work (except for the one anomalous wall), but it uses the same thickness for the window sills in plan. I’ve been supposing that Wireframe Mode doesn’t distinguish between Cutplane line widths and other line widths so the problem could be that I should be using a Hidden Mode, but if Wireframe Mode should be, then something’s wrong.
2-4) I hope the model will demonstrate those issues.
5) Not having much luck with Hidden Mode at all today with this project, First I couldn’t select objects in Hidden Line mode, and the display went buggy:
The Detail WIndow on the right is copied from the one on the left. I updated my display driver, but the problems remain. The best display I can get when working in an active Detail Window in Hidden Mode is shown below:
Sometimes it won’t select walls at all - here it will only select a particular round column, but nothing else.
This is all happening with the file that is on drop box, and an incremental save and new detail window isn’t better.
I have set the wall style to display as you recommended - Line Print Width (2mm for clarity here) and Line Print COlour (black) as desired, but all the wall edges in the Hidden Mode window display as default w Print Display. Both window print with 2mm thickness, but there are new problems with these prints in addtion to the issues above.
6) Print problems now that thicknesses are set in Wall Styles:
a) turquoise hairline between perimeter line and fill (despite being printed w B&W setting) Ed: Resolved - This is a CutePdf issue. Has to be chosen in CutePdf Properties.
b) corners of the perimeter line are radiussed rather than mitred
c) the thick perimeter lines in Hidden Mode view (on the right) aren’t present on all walls (as they are on the Wireframe Mode on the left)
d) No frames on the Wireframe Mode on the left.
e) Neither Mode drops the thick perimeter line away to show the Window sill
f) All wall joints are shown in the Wireframe mode, and some in the Hidden Line mode.SavoieTutorialFromTemplateCurrent 005preAnomly2 001-1.pdf (423.5 KB)
I can work around the above problems by not using an outline with different fill combination (for now) to depict my walls - just making them a solid colour. But the absence of door swings in these plans is something I haven’t found a work-around to, and I’d like it if that could be resolved first.
The issues further above may or may not be a formidable set of problems to resolve, and they’re important for my use and it’d be great to soon have a resolution to those as well.
Door Swings: They come and go - here are two identical Model View Detail Windows in Hidden View Mode: one displays no door swings, one displays them. The Detail Windows show the same objects and are identical (as far as I can tell) in Layers, Detail Properties, General Properties, Level Properties, and Section Attributes :

I’ve discovered what causes the door swings to disappear. It’s resizing the Detail Window:
That’s an undo and redo of a reduction in size of the window causing the swings to disappear.
