BruceKC Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Using the Chief library columns, is there a way to define the plan view with a fill pattern? Don's see a way other than creating a 2D box with a till pattern and placing it over the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When done close, popup will ask- Now select one column, open symbol, block, check off use original plan colors. Now add to library. Select any other column- replace from library-identical objects on floor. If using columns within a railing wall replace newel from library- then drag the wall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BruceKC Posted August 3, 2022 Author Share Posted August 3, 2022 Mark, I got it to work except the hatch pattern in the center isn't displaying and I've tried everything I can think of to make it show, I've brought parts to the front, and the other parts sent to the back, but it doesn't help. Any idea what I've done wrong. Enclosed a picture showing what I ended up with (on the left) and what the edited cad block shows before it's saved and what I want it to look like.
