Description: High quality architectural documentation requires architects to run multiple types of quality checks on their projects. With Archicad’s flexible Graphic Overrides it is easy to create high-quality, accurate documentation while saving time thanks to Archicad’s flexible Graphic Override functionality.

We will now create and add a new rule for the elements with a fire resistance rating of 2 hours. Check the Fill Type, the Fill Background Pen and the Surface override options. Use the new option and choose the same RGB color instead of a Pen and a Surface. Let’s pick the same red color for both the Fill Background Pen and the Surface, so there is no need to create a Pen and a Surface Attribute matching in color to synchronize visualization between 2D and 3D views.  Check the fire rating categories relying on the colors, on both views. #visualization #qualitycheck #colors
