dskogg 24 Posted November 30, 2016 I am new to x8, when i take a section and send to layout i get section lines beyond the wall that are not visible because wall is there. Whats going on? I have plot lines selected. I need to send to printer tonight for meeting in the morning, hopefully someone can fill me in. David Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrownTiger 91 Posted November 30, 2016 Did you check in your section camera DBX "back clip after" check box, and specified a distance? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dskogg 24 Posted November 30, 2016 I see what is happening, i change the clip line to show what it sees, but in x7 it showed everything that was visible to view, not anymore? In otherwords i have a wall that is set back on the main floor with cabinets on the back wall and a wall on the second floor that is much closer, in order to see the cabinets on the lower floor i must move clip line beyond this point in the lower floor but then it shows what is behind wall in upper wall, makes no sense.

justmejerry 45 Posted November 30, 2016 You can break the cross section line in plan view to suit your needs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dskogg 24 Posted November 30, 2016 yes i understand this but i would have to break it not in plan but in elevation to show the lower room in elevation. A section should cut what is in section and show what is in elevation beyond, this has changed from x7? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
justmejerry 45 Posted November 30, 2016 It will show what is beyond the section unless you have backclip selected. Can you post the plan? It shouldn't show more than what is visible as it sounds like your issue is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
