    • Section Markers Won't Reference In

      This may be a little hard to explain. One of my users has a sheet drawing that he has drawn a section marker in. If he references this sheet into another sheet in a separate file, the section marker does not show up. However, if he places a section marker…

      Hard to tell for sure, but the first thing I would try is adding the DV file's path to MS_RFDIR.

      Very true! I've thought of another potential reason why the current behavior is what it is... Since you've creating a new Building View model, the intention is for *that* model to become the focal point, not the main 3D model. If the 3D…

      And just so you're aware... In the main DEM dialog, right next to the "Move Cut Plane" icon, is the "Sync Drawing Def" icon which will generate a DV based on the currently selected DEM definition. It's a nice way to make the transition, or just play with…

      Hi voa Bim I m agree with you. i want to make extraction of my DV (i don't use the DEM because of non calculated cells in V8I!!!). but how you extract your work ( DV in sheet) in 2D?? Hi Damon Wath you describe is, i think, the best way for…

      I'm not Eric, but... perhaps he means he attached the BV to a view window in the 3D model itself; i.e., created a "multi-model" view? I like this method for changing things in the 3D model and interactively seeing the results without having to switch…

      Steve Cocchi

      Correct... You need to be able to select the Clip Volume first in order to display the section marker for editing. I've never actually tried that through a reference, but I'm guessing from your post that it did not work. ;-)
