view template settings

[htlmv]

I started working on our Storefront sheets and noticed that when I set the view template "Storefront Elevation" Visibility for Walls off, the storefront/curtainwall turns off as well. is there a workaround this so that the CWs stay on/visible?

thanks.

if this helps:
1. when cursor hovers over the CW, its ID is "Workset1 : Walls : Curtain Wall: CW 11"
2. when over the wall in question, its ID is "workset1 : stacked walls : stacked wall : metal stud EIFS "

Unfortunately, Curtain Walls are still considered "Walls" as far the the Visibility/Graphics categories are concerned.
It would be very useful to have a separate Category for CW.
In the mean time, you'll have to come up with a Filter to turn off the Walls while the Category remains on.
We've got a Filter we call "Walls not Curtainwalls":
It applies to only the Walls category and is set to select

Family Name
does not contain
Curtain
Then in the View Template, add the Filter and uncheck the Visiblity box
