Model View Options in ArchiCAD allows users to link the appearance of an element to a specific view without changing the underlying settings of the element. This allows for an element to be represented differently in multiple views. As a result, the Model View Options can be applied incorrectly and affect how the element looks in 3D and section/elevation. If the element in the Settings Dialogue window looks different than it does in 3D then it is likely that Model View Options are to blame. Please follow the steps below to adjust the Model View Options for a window displaying incorrectly.
1. Compare the door in 3D and section/elevation with the preview window of the Window Selection Settings dialogue window to see if they are different. If so continue.
NOTE: Keep in mind that not all windows have the same detail level script. This means that some windows may appear correctly while others may not.
2. Go to Document > Model View > Model View Options...
3. Set 3D and Section/Elevation to Full Under the Window area of the Detail Level of Door, Window and Skylight tab and click OK.
4. Check the representation of the door in 3D and section/elevation.
