  • Yes you can, you need to set-up a style which only has the Memberline set. Then set the style of everything else to OFF

    Make the Memberline something like Style = Solid and Thick and any colour you like.

    See Draft Administrator Application User Guide -10.1.2 Setting Style Attributes

    This does assume the the sections within Design have the Meml attribute set correctly, if its a W section then i would set it to [COLOR=#000080]TOS[/COLOR]. If you don't see it use the Modify > Specification. Its the last of the 3 drop downs at the bottom of the form.

    You then need to set the [COLOR=#000080]VGAP[/COLOR] attribute on the [COLOR=#000080]VIEW[/COLOR] within Draft, make it something lie 5mm. I am sure its under Modify > View > Limits-defined or user defined then select the attributes button. [COLOR=#000080]VGAP[/COLOR] should be in there.

    See Draft User Guide - 3.5.13 View Gap Length
    [COLOR=#ff0000]
    "The VGAP attribute allows you to define the size of the gap that DRAFT inserts in View lines where they are crossed by non-solid primitives such as Plines, centrelines, DRAWIs, etc.The default value is 1.5mm."    [/COLOR]
