Try and break the wall and change the wall type 

You need to copy the material and adjust

Share your plan so you can get a quick solution

Mark, see attached wall image showing internal wall of the Porch of the previous project.

Been trying to remove the internal linings to expose the wall framing, but framing show's up as a sheet and not as framing.

Only the outer walls require this as the other internal wall is lined, can you resolve for me.

 

Regards. Neil.

 

   

 

  

Turn on wall framing layer in camera view and utilize the delete surface tool. This might provide a temporary solution, as the chief rebuilds the surface if any changes are made. Others may have better suggestions, but this method would allow you to export the camera view.

 I'm not following this comment, and attaching a screen shot of my wall properties. How can I correct this?

Select sand finish move up then house wrap move up then osb move up and dry wall move down  it may alter the position of your walls, you wall need to fix that 

Your walls are set up incorrectly. The main layer should only contain wall framing, while the others should be in exterior or interior layers.

Share your plan that will to see what is wrong

I have a linear carpet I am trying to apply to the stair runner.  I would like the lines to run vertical.  I cannot figure out why the carpet is turning horizontal on the treads. 

You need to copy the material and rotate the texture

OK this is another situation where the porch beams (CC Lintels) need to tie into the exterior wall at a fixed location. See A & B

The overhang & roof need to be at the edge of the beam as shown. Just because the soffit & fascias need to match.

Columns need to center under the beam.

This makes the floor not in the correct place for the column bases as shown in the picture.

I guess you could drag the foundation out to make the floor larger, then the tile does not cover & the room size label is incorrect.

How do you address these design situations?

 

Also there is an issue with the soffit at A-C that I have not been able to fix.

Use a 3D camera to look at the underside of the overhang.

 

Thanks for your input.

Have a look at this file to see if it will work i added a bit of extra porch and selected no roof over it to make eaves work

Mark, Sorry mate, but struggling to understand some of your last responces:-

 

1.Terrain, under terrain specifications, i de selected Hide Terrain Intersected by Building, which then gave me the

terrain continuing under the building which I wanted, can i change the surface of this area, as it would be only old dirt 

or is it possible to place a solid material to cover this area and make it look like dirt, i could do this!!!!

 

2.Ceilings & Rafters, have been through a myriad of options and nowhere i can get exposing the rafters and removal

of ceilings to show in 3D, can you please elaborate a bit further, must have done at least a dozen pathways

 

3.Floor & Roof Framing, not too sure if i gave you the right info here, but in the Working Plan View, all of the floor

and roof framing is exposed on the floor plan which clutters every room and making it difficult to insert other components.

Can you please give me a clear path, especially when there could be numerous sequences, as I have been searching everthing 

that relates to camera layers and nothing has worked. 

 

Sorry for being a pain, but computer programmes are like a language from another planet, to me. 

See if this video gets you going

Delete objects edit menu

Also number 3 just turn of item layers

See if that is what you want, select hide terrain intersection by building terrain dialog, turn on rafters in camera layers then delete layers in ceiling finish room dialog for required rooms

I might  help if you could share the plan if it’s got corrupt try digging up one of the backups also the wall trimming that have moved may have there height controlled by relative to the terrain

One other thing if it is a big terrain driveway connections can get messy

Did you rebuild terrain if you have auto build turned off

Can you upload the plan

Actualy the more i think about this i got better results just entering the roof pitch in the molding dialog and using transform replicate to move the whole molding up and down

Mark...........................Yes, I had thought of using a molding p-line for the drip edge, but you still need to deal with the shingles above and on a complicated roof it could/would be a real PITA. Thank you and all the others in this thread for taking time to try and solve this ---- much appreciated. I think I'll send it in to support to see what they say. Have a great day.

For shingle overhang use a shadow mold just a square or anything then place on layer and turn off that should get shingles out to drip edge 

i don’t know if you know there is a new tool for moving 3d molding in 3d space called select edit plane

Have a look at this see if it would be moving in the right direction it is using the same molding on all edges and it is a bit tricky but doable

Just upload the plan chieftalk probly does not need all those files just plan  if it’s still to large try zipping or compress, if you just having problems with roof or other 3d model issues

Dimension primary format in dimension defaults could be set to meters instead of mm or have you imported at incorrect units

All good have a nice Christmas

I am pretty sure they charge for 3d plants, and Specialty/Other/Misc I paid for 3d plants it's been that way for a long time 

See if that gets what you want
