Hello Chief Community!

 

I am trying to show electrical outlets within the Wall Details that are generated with the wall framing. I have 'Electrical' checked to display on the Active Layer Set, but nothing shows.

 

Is it possible to have outlets displayed on these details? I appreciate your insight!

No, This is a special CAD Detail automatiallly generated by the software that only includes framing members.

 

The electrical outlets can only be displayed on a wall elevation, not on a wall detail.  I think it would be cool if they could but it's not possible at this time.

Here is a work around option if it would help. Once you have your electrical done, make a copy of the plan. Open the copy and change the wall types to not have drywall. Be sure to frame the wall or walls. Take a render or elevation and see what you get. My image is an elevation.
