Hi,

I am having a problem with Google drive.  I have a PC.  When I use "save as" and name my plan a new name (as I create multiple design options for the same kitchen), I get a RED X when google drive tries to sync.  Then if I try to open the new plan I get a message that I am locked out.  

Why is this happening?  It doesn't happen at work on the MAC, only at home on my PC.   Is there a work around if I want to duplicate a plan multiple times so that I can make a variety of design options for the same space?

Thanks!

Jaye

I selected "open below" but When I look at my down staircase in perspective, I have no floor.   I'm certain I am doing something wrong, just not sure how to keep my floor and still create a basement level for my staircase to go down to?

The simplest way to draw a down stair is to Alt drag the stair - it goes down instead of up. 

That works great in plan, but unfortunately not in perspective.  Easy suggestion?

 

You got it.

 

• Auto build a basement.
• Stairs need to start from the up position.
• Keep in mind that you'll need to have an "open to below" of level one to allow the stairs to appear in the floor plan. (Do this by creating an area which is either surround by walls, railings, or an invisible wall.)

Thanks!  Where or how do i create the "open to below" area that is surrounded by walls/invisible wall?  

Hi. My first time writing on Chief Talk ---   I'm working on a kitchen that has a staircase going up and and next to it has a staircase going down.  I have no problem showing the "up" staircase.  But, can not create a "down" staircase adjacent to it.  I'm sure it has something to do with the fact that this is a single level space, but not sure what to do about it.  Also, i never created a 2nd fl but the "up" staircase works fine.  Do i need to create a lower level for the down staircase to work?  How do I do this in the simplest way since I will not be showing any other levels?

Thanks!
