) but why all the effort of matching fills to materials to get nice drawings, when further on returning to different appearances or poor and empty drawings? We know how to handle other work-arrounds (presentation with solids / having hatches off /. The resulting 2D drawings are worse then single DWG files! Even some work-arround export-import via DWG contains more usefull information concerning fills. Nice drawings in design but finally we have to compete with several thousands of seperate dots and small lines. For example : windows are represented with fill dashed-dot, brickwork is added to elevations. > all vectorial hatching will be exploded to single lines. We teach to add vectorial hatching and shadows to sections / elevations.ĭespite there efforts, it's absolutely necesarry to detach sections / elevations to seperate 2D drawings when entering construction phase to remove or modify certain mistakes. They manage there first models with succes. We are trying to get some others in learning process. Our office is expanding quickly : 3 out of 13 co-workers, myself included, know to handle the Virtual Building very well.
I wonder if there's any opportunity to resolve a small but significant problem related to (linked) sections / elevations : vectorial hatching appears exploded and hard to handle once in 2D environment.
