ORD Cross sections have solid shapes that print black

I'm having a similar problem on one project.  The material images are being displayed on the sections like Jessica, plotting as a solid shape.  I tried finding where its coming from and keep striking out.

Hi,

This is because your 3d model View 1 is set to a rendered display style like Smooth. Try changing it to Wireframe and your section display style should change back to standard shapes.

Did you have to change each section drawing view to make it work?  

Mark, 

I have 2D in view 1 - Wireframe, and Default-3D in view 2 - Wireframe. Cross sections drawings for some reason have Default-3D attached with presentation Monochrome and components ar filled. I have no idea how to control this. 

Also in sheet seed dgnlib, ale is set to wireframe. In the drawings for Default-3D attachment, I have set up update from Design Model Settings.

Really get headache with this now.

Possibly you can help with this. 

Hi Adam,

To have control via Design Model, you need Default-3D to be displayed in View 1 and it will adopt display settings that that in your sections.

Try setting the 3d model in View to Wireframe and Save Settings, and it should get updated in all section models.

Did it, no result. Set Default-3D model to be active in View 1, changed Display Style to the Wireframe. Saved Settings. Switched to Drawing model and it is still in Monochrome Display Style. Have no idea why as I barely use Monochrome Display Style.

I am afraid I will end up with manually changing every singe cross section drawing.

BTW. I am using ORD 2022 R1.

If I remember correctly, I basically had to change the saved view (named boundary) presentation view attribute for each cross section named boundary from illustration to wireframe from in the file where the named boundaries are defined in.

Then I had to update each cross sections drawing model reference saved view settings to update from design.

This is a PIA, the weird thing is that issue is not applicable to every project, only with projects that used a template from an early DOT workspace.  So I feel like it roots all the way back to the template and component feature definition??  Any project using a newer template or a template from a more recent workspace don't seem to have this cross section issue.
