Hi there - I can not figure out the Section View Style Overrides and would like to know if they are bugged or I am doing smth. wrong? I am working mostly with Blocks inside Blocks so if this is the issue we know the culprit and I won’t be able to use the feature - if not: The Section Hatch Pattern…

Hi @Sebastian_Wimmer [image] Sebastian Wimmer: The Section Hatch Pattern Colour Override to “By Object” only respects the colour of the top level block with the highest hierarchy - in addition it does not use the Object Colour of the Block but uses its Layer Colour. You are right, we need to…

after trying out some stuff and delving deeper into using visualarq professionaly - I found another bug, this might have been reported but I am unable to find the thread. when changin properties of a visualarq element, not by object but by layer for example - the clipping plane / section / level do…

Hi @Sebastian_Wimmer , I tried to reproduce the issue, but everything works fine on my end. When I change the section style attributes on a layer, the walls update the section display instantly. Maybe I’m not running the right tests, or I might be misunderstanding the problem. I’m using VisualARQ …

thank you for your reply - can’t answer it right now - I will make a video for clarification when I have time

@enric hmm strangely enough I can not reproduce this behaviour right now - I updated the graphics drive, but would not assume that that was the problem. If I come across the bug again - I will keep you updated

Hello @enric Maybe this is the same problem, but slightly with a different appearance. I am testing arround what configuration/settings of the visualarq elements seems to be the best and the most flexible - in the end I think getting all the configuration from a per layer - basis is speed and dept…

@Sebastian_Wimmer i am almost at exactly the same boat, both advocating the per layer workflow and making very similar choices like the ones you present, regarding per layer setup with the drawback of not controlling boundary and hatch plot width and getting mixed color preview results. i hope thes…

after some examination - I guess the displaycolor of the “wall layer” is funky because rhino does not really know what setting it is on, because the SectionSytle Dialogue in the LayersPanel, does not have a “ByLayer” setting. But I guess this is already known. [image] The main reason / hope why I…

Hello, working on something similar i found that Vaplans and sections are somewhat better exported to vectors compared to live plans and sections exported from layouts to dwg. But my effort to automate the process with lines to polylines routines (for same layer, type objects), multiple geometry t…

[image] Sebastian Wimmer: now my problem: (picture1) you can see that the wall incorporates the section style pattern, but in the 3d view, cut by a level it uses the color of the wall (green) and not of the wall layer which is set (for example yellow = insulation) Hi @Sebastian_Wimmer I could…
