THANKS FOR THE REPLY. hAVE ATTACHED 3 PICS TO HOPEFULLY HELP EXPLAIN THE SITUATION. I SET HIDDEN STRUCTURAL COLUMN LINES TO GREEN IN THE GRAPHICS OVER-RIDE TO HIGHLIGHT THEM FIRSTLY FINE. (WITH THIN LINES TURNED ON FOR CLARITY) . YOU CAN SEE THE THE GREEN COLUMN IS ALSO DASHED AS IT SHOULD BE. THE COLUMN TO THE NORTH (S2) IS ALSO SHOWN CORRECTLY AS SOLID. UNFORTUNATELY I CAN'T USE FINE VIEW AS I NEED THE BEAMS TO PRINT OUT AS CHAIN DOTTED LINES SECONDLY COURSE (WITH TIN LINES TURNED OFF) YOU CAN SEE THAT BOTH COLUMNS NOW PRINT OUT THE SAME, AND ALSO THAT THE ONE THAT WAS DASHED AND GREEN BEOFRE IS NOW SOLID AND BLACK. ALSO THE COARSE VIEW WHEN THIN LINES ARE TURNED ON SHOWS THREE LINES (CAPITAL I) RATHER THAN THE FULL OUTLINE OF THE STEEL AS IN THE OTHER VIEWS. LASTLY COARSE WITH STRUCTURAL COLUMNS SET TO DISPLAY AS FINE. (AGAIN THIN LINES TURNED ON) HERE THE COLUMN THAT SHOULD BE DASHED AND GREEN AS IN THE FIRST EXAMPLE IS SOLID AND BLACK, EVEN THOUGH STRUCTURAL COLUMNS ARE SET TO FINE. IS THERE A STRAIGHT FORWARD ANSWER TO THIS? I BELIEVE THAT I CAN EDIT THE FAMILY OF STRUCTURAL COLUMNS SO THAT IN COURSE VIEW MY STEEL COLUMNS BEHAVE MORE LINE THE CONCRETE COLUMNS (I.E. THAT IT KEEPS THE ACTUAL SHAPE OF THE SECTION RATHER THAN SHOWING IT SYMBOLICALLY) ANY IDEASANY HELP WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED.
