52 Referring to the walls displayed as dashed lines in the following illustration, select the interior
walls one at a time.
As you click each wall, it is displayed as a dashed line.
Notice that the openings display as demolished even though you did not specifically demolish
them. That is because the openings are wall-hosted elements. When you demolish the host, you
demolish all elements hosted by it. Because the Phase value is Phase 1 (south) the walls are
demolished in this phase.
53 In the Project Browser, under Floor Plans, double-click Phase 2 (north).
54 Click View menu ➤ View Properties.
55 In the Element Properties dialog, under Phasing, select Phase 2 (north) for the Phase value, and
select Show All for Phase Filter.

The line style of the current phase is displayed as black and previous phases are displayed as
gray.

The default phase filters are displayed. In this case, however, you need a filter that takes all of
the phases into account with a particular graphic override to highlight the demolished walls in
red.
59 In the Phasing dialog, click New.
A new phase filter is displayed at the bottom of the Filter Name list.
60 Under Filter Name, click Filter 1, and enter Demo Red.
61 For the Filter Name, Demo Red, under Demolished, select Overridden.

This new filter uses graphic overrides to set the display of all building model elements, New,

Graphic overrides define the appearance of building model elements according to their phase
status: existing, demo, new or temporary.
