NathanielK Posted yesterday at 02:21 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:21 PM I have a central room which will serve basically as a stairwell that extends thru two floors, but the room is actually a 3-story tall stone-and-mortar tower with a room at the top (yes, like a castle). I have the room created on the first floor, but it's not showing as extending through the upper floors. What settings do i check to make sure that it's one continuous tower, and it shows in each floor? I've tried searching through these forums and the help manual, but I must not be using the correct search terms. It seems like a simple problem, but I'm not finding a solution.

richoffan Posted yesterday at 02:29 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:29 PM Go to the room above, highlight and specify room as open below. You can turn off label if you want or change it to whatever you want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NathanielK Posted yesterday at 02:43 PM Author Share Posted yesterday at 02:43 PM So i have to make a separate room with its own walls (aligning with the walls below) on each floor? That seems counterintuitive.... Some walls extend up thru higher floors — i've seen it. Thats what im going for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richoffan Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago as "they" say one man's ceiling is another man's floor. Keep in mind if you try to analyze every thing there is to build and every way to do it you'd never get anything done. The easiest way I do it is build that perimeter as you suggest. This can be anything you want that defines an area. Railings, room dividers, wall etc. Then spec the area you want open to open below. If you want a continuous wall in the tower then open the dbx for the walls (group select) open structure and make the walls balloon framing. May not be "intuitive" but it works for me. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
