raltd9245 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I have been using polyline solids to show butt joint glass. I don't bother with the track. Track is shown on my details. Does anyone have a better way to show it. When I do a camera view the polyline does not show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcaffee Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Make your material a bit less transparent or use a textured glass material. jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine the psolid not showing. Seriously, when a plan is posted with the problem we can all learn from the question. Bridge Troll signing out.

raltd9245 Posted March 31, 2014 Author Share Posted March 31, 2014 thanks Scott I changed it to a 3/4" thick temp glass wall. It worked fine to a point as Chief always does. Just not enough features for people doing custom stuff. We need more hardware, need a better way to show hinges. Better door numbering system, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Carrick Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Ron, You do know that you can reorder the Doors and Windows. You just move the lines in the Schedules up or down and it will renumber. X6 enhancement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't seem to have the time or don't get it. I think the problem is the difference between software architects and architects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
