Nicinus Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 This is a possible suggestion (but also quite likely a misunderstanding on my part) but I can't seem to select an architectural block in elevation/cross section? I have a block of cabinets in a bathroom interior elevation that is unselectable. If I open the block in plan everything works as expected again in the elevation and I can manipulate the individual elements. I can multiselect cabinets and block them, but as soon as I block it I can't select it anymore. This to me appears inconsistent and in my mind it does not seem logical that I can't select blocks and move them and unblock them in elevations. Side question, how I can I export an elevation as a pure black and white line drawing without materials in grayscale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayCas Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I'll take a stab at this in the elevation view, vector view, turn off "pattern 3D views", send to cad drawing, export HTH, Ray C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawdzira Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 The layer they are going to once blocked is probably locked in the view where you can't select it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: I stand corrected, it came out the way I wanted in Layout, but still looks like a grayscale view in plan? Can anyone explain this to me? What if I wanted it to be a grayscale? Only possible as an image? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Alan, that was embarassing, should have been able to figure that one out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it set to Black and White, or Grayscale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
