WhistlerBuilder Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Hello everyone, I recently upgraded to x14 and suddenly my custom shadow boards are missing in 3D. I cant find a layer to turn on for them in the 3D view settings and they are still physically in the plans. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey_martin Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Look in the roof dbx. Make sure you migrate your user library forward as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were they made of Polyline Solids? not through the Roof DBX? , Chief has renamed them as 3D Solids with the same name for the Layer, you should be able to tell, if you can see them in Plan select one ( unlock if needed ) and see the layer it is on on the status bar ( bottom of screen) or by opening the object.... *I have found a few items myself which CA has "altered" in older plans , so it's possible as Joey mentioned that they were just "turned off" or deleted in the Roof DBX too.

WhistlerBuilder Posted June 13, 2022 Author Share Posted June 13, 2022 They are present in the roof options. See attached. They did not transfer as polyline solids, nor where they polyline solids before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes the Version info in your Sig , is sometimes important to know , as answers can vary by Version used. Mick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VHampton Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 In 3d or 2d view... Is the Room Trim Layer turned on? The screen capture of your project shows it unchecked. (2nd screen capture) I just took a quick look at a current project file, and "Roof Trim"... aka 'shadow boards' have their own layer.

(1st screen capture) It is on in 3d. I checked everything for layers to turn on and off. I rebuilt it a few times and even had the camera layer set turn every layer on and it still doesnt show up.

Kbird1 Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 might be one for Tech Support , I tried all the same things as you and then decided to built a new Roof ....

WhistlerBuilder Posted June 13, 2022 Author Share Posted June 13, 2022 This is pretty frustrating. This project was 100% complete and I was trying to send it out for rendering subcontractor today.

Now its messed up just because I upgraded to x14 It's a strange one for sure........I would just send it out from X13 then, the Render probably doesn't mind/care, do they? And please send the X13 and X14 plans to TS. to look at it. Mick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
