OK seems to be working now.

I can not get the website to search this morning?

Select object

Menu bar at bottom of screen: Open Symbol Or Open Object & find "2D Block"

Select "2D Block"

Find Button "Generate Block" to create a new block.

Thanks for the tip, I'll give it a try.

This seems to work for labeling the walls

Looks like this is what I was looking for.

%wall_type[5..6]%

The 6th 7th & 8th characters from that WALL TYPE. Currently I'm using 3E as a wall type example. I may need 3E1 in the future.

%wall_type% returns "Wall 3E to roof", all my wall type names in this project start with "Wall xx ......."

I want the label on the wall to display in plan view as "3E"

I'm trying to use Object Info Code in my table.

The 3 characters are embedded in the Object Description.

And I want the to appear as the Wall Label.

Any suggestions?

Does anyone have these in 3D?

The link checker, below, did not find that to be a valid URL.

I have it in version X15 but not in X14.

The layers should be OFF, no check marks.

Check your wall layers, they should be off

I did find a CAD file but it is 2D.

The Revit file can be exported  3D if you have Revit. I don't but you can get a 30 day trial.

Thanks you, you are quite talented.

I have 67 rooms in this building.
What I did was set the CAD layer to Ceiling Grid Layer.
Select one room, then use Match properties to get all rooms selected.

Make a room polyline,
While all still selected set fill to grid.
This was very quick.

The room area polyline comes with a hatch automatically, can you set the room area polyline to have one too?

I'm using the CAD layer to set the layer but I wish i could force a 12x12 grid hatch.

Looks like it will work out fine.

I think you are correct, the tray ceiling is still fighting me.

Your method seems to work in this case..

Thanks

So crossing the wall is not the issue. You must have a small gap between the tray ceiling line and the auto generated exterior ceiling line.

That seems to work.

So for the ceiling use a 9 foot ceiling in all rooms & use a tray ceiling to raise the 2 feet in the core.

Then use beams or solids on a layer that will display in section views for the header walls.

I need the square footage to populate a room schedule.

Room dividers will mess up the schedule.

What is the best method to create a ceiling with a header wall and not break up the room definition?

Ceilings are 9' drop-in tile.

In the waiting room I want to jump the ceiling to 11' with a header wall separating the ceiling spaces.

I do not want to break the room up with invisible walls.
