Specifying the Display of Door and Window Assemblies
The display of a door/window assembly depends on the direction from which
you view the door/window assembly. In plan view, the door/window assembly
object is displayed as parallel lines with vertices marking the grid lines, as an
architect would typically draw a door/window assembly. In 3D view, the
door/window assembly object is displayed as it would appear in the real world,
with surfaces showing length, thickness, and height. You control what you
want to display in each particular view.
Element Definitions and Custom Display Components
By default, the display of all infills, frames, and mullions is controlled by the
display properties of the default infill, default frame, and default mullion.
However, you can add individual element definitions as components with
separate display properties. For example, if you define two infills called stone
panel and glass panel, by default they are both controlled by the default infill
display properties. But you can add each definition as a new display component
and then control the display properties separately.
NOTE The component name in the Custom Display Component dialog box must
match the name of element definition in the Design Rules tab. Otherwise, the
element definition does not display properly.
For more information about the display system, see Display System on page
777.
