Hi

In the attached image of a pilecap I would like a different dashed lines to represent the piles/pilecap.

The family has two sub categories but I can see no way of distinguishing between the them in Object Styles/VG overrides. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks

Dave F.

That file seems to be corrupt.

All object styles can be set in VG but not necessarily in over-rides.  For that use the linework tool.

I re-downloaded it & it open OK for me in '12. Maybe this one will do it.

"All object styles can be set in VG"

The sub categories of this family are listed in OS as child categories of Structural Foundations along with the Hidden lines option. They don't have there own Hidden Lines so it looks like linework is the only, long winded, way to go.
