Designer100 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Does anyone know why my pier and beam foundation floor joists and beams disappear when I try to do perpective and I have to back out of it? Open old one! I custom drawn floor joist and pads and 1 concrete block on each pad then drew beams and floor joists. I keep trying to pull siding down over to cover the beams and floor joists and then they all disappear. I need the floor decking to appear on a section over floor joist to with deck up level with entry and grass under home. I did this project in Chief x11. I would appreciate any help in this apartment.

Doug_N Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I opened your file in X12 and pulled the siding down as per your post. Here is the result. So maybe this is an X11 glitch, or maybe try one of the following. 1) Restart your system and try again 2) Reinstall X11 and try again 3) Install X12 (I really like it) Hope one of these works for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark3D Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 you should be able to just draw the steps and for grass under open terrain and un tick hide terrain intersection buy building plus rebuild deck framing it will raise as you have already altered the floor level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark3D Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 the beams under the house disappear because you stole them from the deck so rebuild deck framing the draw new house floor beams then draw your stairs see if that works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chopsaw Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 If you still want the siding to cover the floor beams take a look at the settings for the living room floor. Apartment_Plan_Chopped.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
