Revit Structure 2009.  I am using the linework tool to hide some parts of concrete walls where they intersect a pier for example.  The result I am getting are black dots at the corners I cannot hide.  I have looked through everything.  What am I missing?

Thanks

Got it.  I changed my plan view from wireframe to shading w/edges and they disappeared.

 Thanks.

These are awesome little dots.  You can actually control line lengths with these as well.  Most will disappear by tabbing through to them after your initial selection.  However, some just seem to remain.  Shading with edges may not be the best solution if you have colors assigned to your objects.

When using the linteype overide, you should be able to pull these dots and then click on them again.  Keep pulling and clicking until they completely disappear.  That's how I remembered it working.  Play around with it until it works.  If you've spent 60 seconds on it, you've spent too much time.  Try it at multiple locations.  It should work.

I have a pizza to pick-up.

Let me know if does or doesn't work.
