Help I need Somebody..how do I pattern 3d section with a template

I have created a template in a dgnlib file to pattern 3d sections. It works, but I have to assign the template using element id.

that's a pain.

How can this be automated?  I want to pick the template, create the 3d elements and sections and then the sections are patterned

  • I've just spent the best part of an hour wresting with your dgnlib and Element Templates in general. Again, its not a feature I use as my experience with ET's leave me feeling that it has a somewhat flaky implementation and you have to jump through so many hoops just to get it working. Although I could get the patterns to appear in your dgnlib, I couldnt get them working in my test file with some simple solid blocks for ages. I eventually got it working by adjusting the Cut Plane display style settings; especially Treat Open Elements as Edges which should be enabled. The IsAnnotation property in the templates was also causing issues so I set all to none. Revit does this soooooo much better.
