  1. Plan associated with this issue ... Basement Renovations w Layout Display Issues.zip
  2. Hi all, I've been using Chief a long time but first time posting here -- I am having issues, which just started after my upgrade to X16, with cross section views that I have sent to a layout. I link cross section views to layouts the same way I link plans views: - I have several Layer Sets created (which reference several analogous Annotation Sets which I have created) to display different things in the same cross section view (e.g. Cabinetry Elevations set, Electrical Elevations set, Tile Elevations set, etc.) - In my layout, I show the same cross section view on various pages (e.g. electrical page, cabinetry page...) and I set the Layer Display Options to display a different Layer Set on each. I do the same thing with plan views, as I imagine others do as well - I always use 'plot lines' for the cross section displays, rather than "live view' The recent problem is that with the cross section views, every time I click through to the cross section view from the layout and then close it again, ALL instances of the cross section in my layout update to display the most recent Layer Set I was working on. (This does not happen with plan views.) So now every time I edit a cross section view, I have to go through my layout and change the Layer Display Options for each linked box to the proper Layer Set again. You can imagine how frustrating it is, and I am always afraid I'm going to miss one before I print this. This never happened with my cross sections before in X15 and older. Am I missing something? Is there a new "auto update Layer Sets" option for cross section views which I can turn off? Is anyone else having this issue? Thanks for your help!
