demoed walls Demoed walls ghosting on perspective rendering

[DianaK]

The walls that I have designated "demo" and have turned off on the "Remodel" layer are showing up at the floor and wall connection points when I generate a perspective rendering. How do you get rid of that?

[DavidJPotter]

Do not use any kind of "wall" to represent the removed walls, rather use dashed CAD lines that will show where the removed walls were. That way you should then get no "ghost" artifacts in renders. A screen capture showing what you did and what you see would also be helpful, I am guessing what you mean from just your post.

 

The way I do this is to have two plans: 1 an as built showing existing walls that are to be removed using hatch walls and then 2. a remodel plan with the demo walls removed or a "Proposed Remodel Plan". This way you do not get any unwanted artifacts showing up.

Brilliant! I should have figured that out. Thank you!

I just use a cad mask set behind the floor plan, so when you remove a wall, the dotted line cad mask will automatically show up. There is a video on Chief's web site.
