    Default Demolished ceiling grids to show dashed

    Summary: I wish when demolishing a ceiling grid, the hatch pattern of the ceiling grid would also show dashed to make it more clear that it is being demolished.

    Description: I wish when demolishing a ceiling grid, the hatch pattern of the ceiling grid would also show dashed to make it more clear that it is being demolished.

    How Used: We do a lot of health care projects where there is frequent need for precise partial demolition of existing ceiling grids. This would allow us to better tell the contractor which part of the ceiling is to be demolished.

    Feature Affinity: Ceilings

    Everything that has a surface hatch, not just ceilings, needs this. They have to change the Phasing Graphics Overrides for Projection/Surface Patterns to not override with an actual pattern but override with a linetype that will be used to draw the pattern.

    The current workaround is to assign a 'demo' ceiling pattern based on a custom .pat surface pattern.
    It can be downloaded from here:
