View Full Version : Object styles & links!

I have a topographic site with massed buildings (rvt files) linked in-

I think that I SHOULD be able to override the material to change the look of all the massed buildings from within the host file.

The visibility for the linked file is set so that object styles= host view. But when I change the object style for mass, it doesn't do anything!
The individual masses are set to 'by category' in their own files. Doesn't this mean they should take on whatever material is set inside the object styles?

What am I missing??

Anyone an expert at linking?

This is not possible to control from the host file. If you want to change the material you'd need to it in the linked file...

You can control everything, but the materials of a link...
