What happened to the invisible line style in 6.1. That line style has disappeared from all of my former projects and the standard templates that shipped with Revit. Anybody else see this? How do I get them back?

They're still available with the linework tool, & in the family editor.

Were they included with detail lines pre 6.1?

I can't recall, & don't remember acessing them there.

I seem to remember them there. Weren't people using them for dimension anchors? They have also disappeared from the Line Styles dialog. I do remember them there.

There're in my linestyles dialogue, using the AUSEN (? or something ) template.

What does this mean? I also need an "Invisible" Drafting Line and cannot find it... I have tried to make one but if I set the line color to "No Color" it comes out black.

As far as a work-around for dimension anchors I have been using Reference Lines because they are not visible when printed Also I have been making them really short so that they don't clutter the screen.

Thanks

Hi Clark,

That was a reference to an Orstralian template. :grin:

You can make "invisible lines" by setting the line colour to White, but beware that will export out as black lines.

Also refer the recent discussion (http://forums.augi.com/showthread.php?t=6744&highlight=invisible)about what is an invisible line and what isn't.
