    Post plan files not DWG.

    It sounds like your changed the wall type to a demo wall? The demo wall IS invisible in 3D, the point being you don't want to see it in the new build.

    As an alternative you could use a different layer for those BUT that will leave it's footprint in the floor finish layer if you turn it off.

    For As Built- what many of us do it have one plan that is the as built, hatch the walls to be removed using the hatch wall tool. Then have a second plan for the new work and use a reference display to show the As built as an underlay. The ref display is NOT select-able while in the new plan. The demo wall will not show in the 3D view of the new plan BUT

    you can also reference the As built plan in 3D in which case those walls will show.

    Thanks. I'm following a video: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/watch/10211/remodeling-how-to-generate-as-built-overlays-in-2d-3d.html?playlist=120 

       

  2. Hello, 

    I should Strat in: I'm working on a Mac... 

    While trying to create As Built and Remodel Views, I noticed when I click on a wall it doesn't come up in the 

    Active Layer Display Options - I have search for it).

    Second Question is, after creating the Demo Wall Layer and then Hatching the walls, I'm able to see them only on the 2D view but not on 3D view.

    Thank you, 

    Estee 

  3. hi, 
    had two versions of colour cabinets that I sent to layout. 
    one version overlapped the other. now I cannot change it back to the one I want.
    I tried changing it with the Painter or open the Object and change the texture, but it didn't work.
    at the bottom of the screen it says:  Painting: Glossy leather... Target: Glossy leather...
    I run out of ideas how to fix it.
    any idea how to correct it??

  4. yes I did... I'm working on it for a couple of hours.. nothing works. I talked to support and they didn't know either.

    Im so surprised that such a basic thing is so complicated and unsolvable...

    Thanks though...
