4hotshoez Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I was needing to look at something on the second floor but got a full overview. Then went to the first floor to create a view and this is what it shows... I have never had an issue in x6 that required any setting changes. Even the icon changes. Bug?

Kiwideziner Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 IS IT FLOOR ONLY CAMERA? Put up a plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4hotshoez Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 I closed all the windows but the plan and used the POC again and it did show correctly, but when I switched to the second floow the POC shows the roofs, which by the way are set up to show on the first floor for the roof plan drawing.

HumbleChief Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Todd, I get the roofs on the second floor too. Never seen that and couldn't find a way to not see them other than in the roof plane display dbx but shouldn.t have to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug_Park Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 You have show lower floors checked. Your roofs are on the first floor, so when you go to the second floor they are shown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry_Sweeney Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Todd, I also got the same results. I went to the second floorplan and clicked the "Perpective Floor Overview" and got the results shown in the attachment. Notice what I got circled in the attachment. When showing the 2nd flr. plan and then clicking of the floor overview what shows is the "full overview icon". I'll have to go back and open X6 and see what icon shows up when the "Floor view" is clicked on in the earlier version. I noticed you had your roofs showing on your first floor so I moved all the roofs up to the 2nd floor and the roofs did not show in the 2nd flr. overview. I'm not sure if it worked this way in X6 or not. I'll have to review this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4hotshoez Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 Maybe I should create another floor for the roof plan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry_Sweeney Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 You have show lower floors checked. Your roofs are on the first floor, so when you go to the second floor they are shown. OKAY, I have to ask. Where do I go to uncheck this? I've been looking in perferences and defaults, but I'm not finding it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry_Sweeney Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Glenn......Thanks. I knew I ran across it before, but for the life of me I could not locate it. I wish there was a better type search engine for finding these kinds of items----if that's possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teresa Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 When You click on a roof plane you can choose to show it on the floor above, unless you want it to show up on the floor below. It is a button in the bottom edits. No reason to create a new floor, I don't think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I particularly like "with exact phrase". I just tried it and it took me straight help for the correct dbx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to the second floorplan and clicked the "Perpective Floor Overview" and got the results shown in the attachment. Notice what I got circled in the attachment. This what I was saying in my original post. The icon changed. I selected the "Perpective Floor Overview" button and the button icon changed to "perspective FULL overview" BUG?

glennw Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 The icon behaviour occurs because you haven't used the icon in that view yet. The icons only indicate the tool used in the last window they were used in, not the generated window. Make the floor plan window active it the icon displayed will be the last one used in that view.
