Hello everyone,

Anyone knows how to activate the elevation camera handles that are not visible? Clip Side doesn't work (yes, I unchecked Room). 

There are 2 side lines (in plan view)  that are very  long without handlers> I tried everything already... 

Never happened in X17...

 

Thanks

Check if the "CAD, Clip Lines" layer is displaying in your elevation view.

Thanks for your answer. 

YES it's displayed.

I don't know what else to do...

You said you don't see any handles in Plan View. That could happen if "Display as Callout" is checked and "Clip Sides" is unchecked.

You've maybe already tried this, but just to be clear - You do need "Clip Sides" and/or "Clip Elevation" to see any lines in elevation view.

If that doesn't help:

* Change the color of the CAD, Clip Lines layer to something other than black?

* Could you post a screenshot of the elevation camera specification? (Use "Edit Active View" while in the elevation view or "Open Object" on the camera in Plan View)

Thanks Eric,

So apparently 2 of the 3 I managed to "shrink" by unchecking "Display As Callout". 

the third elevation wasn't corrected. 

Attached you'll find the screenshot of the Camera Specification. 

Thanks again

This elevation has Clip Sides unchecked. Clip Width controls how long the handles are in Plan View, but unless Clip Sides is also checked your elevation view will include everything.
