WOW! That worked. Thank you so much!!
-
So I think I have a process now. The lower floor needs the halfwall (solid rail) follow the stairs. The top floor does not show a wall - I even made a pony wall and tried the options to go thru floor, etc. Then I added a small return of the wall where the halfwall meets the stairs on the top floor - this completed the wall. Then i was able to put the angled wall up under it. I think it looks good in plan view and 3D.

Wow! I think I just did it by adding a solid rail wall on the lower floor. It still only shows the wall on the lower floor and not on the upper floor. Maybe I'll try a pony wall.
-
I'll keep working on it. The cap is on the lower stairs but the wall is following the higher stairs also without a cap. Doing it this way only shows the wall on the lower floor and blank on the upper. I'm still digging...
-
Ah! I think I'm getting somewhere
-
I think it may be because I have a halfwall on the top floor - I may need to turn my lower wall into a solid rail - trying that now
-
It is a solid wall
-
The follow stairs is checked - still looking...

I was messing around with my template wanting to get some more things in place for my stairs and defaults. I ran into this before and just moved on, but now I am drawing homes using Chief and need to find a way to angle or follow the stairs with a halfwall. Thank you SND_D_Residential Template.plan

Hello, I have a soffit that just wants to be angled. I auto created the roofs and this happened. So I deleted that part and made my own - same thing. So I mirrored the rear roof at 45 into place - same thing. I have included the plan - anyone know why this is happening or how to fix it? SND1833 Norm Jones Residence.plan

Thank you gentlemen! Great ideas!
-
Perfect! I just don't need the added details in my sections. Thank you!
-
Ah! I didn't want the size - ok, thank you!! I will give them some depth

I ran into this once before. I am setting my room types for each space, but the floors are not updating. The garage did. The Master has carpet, the tile shower has tile, etc. Any ideas of what I am missing? Thank you, Steve MPI1825 Bill and Sharon Kirkwood.plan

That worked perfectly! That is a very nice way to add a 2D plan view to a 3D Symbol! Thank you so much!! Now I am ready to start getting some things made.
-
That is exactly what I was hoping exists. Thank you solver!!
-
Thank you!!
-
I I'm still looking for ways to control the symbol/block for 2D plan view. Any further help/screen shots, please? I must be missing something.
-
Using 1 worked! I feel like I'm in charge again Thank you!!
-
Wow! this sounds hopeful! Thank you Gene! Thank you Michael! I did not try 0. I tried 1. But if I can add lines and remove them, then I will try that also.

Ok, just to follow up on what I'm doing... for now. I just made 3D blocks saved to the library. I am able to control the layers in 2D for the plan view. I need to explode the blocks to stretch them, so hoping symbols are still an option. At this point I think it not wise to spend too much time building my library until I learn more. Any thoughts/help would be very appreciated.

This is still driving me crazy. I want to create a symbol so I can use sizing. If you look at the image, as soon as I create the solid into a symbol, I lose the 3D chamfers and all the lines in the 2D block. You can also see, I guess by "Number of Faces" and "Smoothing Angle" it smooths everything. I have tried every angles in the Smoothing Angle and it does nothing. I don't want a symbol that looks like a box, I want one that looks like what I drew. I also removed Fill, but that does nothing either. I have spent many hours on solid polylines that did other things (see above added the molding lines), so I thought I should just learn the Primitive Tools - but I get other results that do not make sense to me. Why is it smoothing? I want it sharp like a drew. I watched Steve (ChiefSkills) make a hood and it all worked perfectly! He Inserted it from the library and it looks just like he drew it. As I type this, I think this will be a good project to reach out to Steve with.

Perfect! Thank you I'm getting good at making this stuff - been at it for about 6 hours straight!! Enjoy your weekend!

Nope! Still have the issue. Seems to be on just one edge of the base cap

I think I found (A) - see image - Display Molding Edges
