Overriding Host Layers

Using overrides, you can control the visibility of cut edges in host layers in plan and section views. The hosts
to which you can apply an override are walls, roofs, floors, and ceilings. You can assign line weight, line
color, and line pattern to each of the layer functions: Structure, Substrate, Thermal/Air, Finish 1, and Finish
2. You can also control the line styles for common edges, which occur when a line is common to 2 layers
of differing functions. If both layers are drawn in line styles with the same pen weight, the properties assigned
to common edges are used.
You can also select from the following core layer clean-up options:
Default. This is the current behavior.
Use Function. Ignores the material settings (the line is never invisible) and sets the style of the separating
line based on the layers' functional priorities. The style of a separating line is determined by the layer
with the higher functional priority.
Use Common Edge Style. Ignores the functional priorities and material settings, and always uses the
common edge style.
No Edge. Sets the separating line to invisible whenever the layers have the same fill pattern.
The line styles that you assign to the host structure are view-specific; they are visible only in the view in
which you create them. The overrides are applied to the cut edges of all hosts in the view.
