export elevation to layout

[JeanTurcotte]

Hi, 

 

I'm trying to export kitchen elevation (image 1) to layout but there is alot of buzy line appearing on layout (image 2).

 

Is there a way to adjust the parameters to fix it ?

thank's

I turn off labels for that which helps.

Can also temporarily change default doors and drawers to slab, export to layout, print to pdf OR save as and never let the elevation update, then change the plan back to the original default doors (undo works quickly)

 

In some cases I will copy the entire run of cabinets to another wall somewhere- make all doors and drawers openings with no shelves- then convert that to CAD

Sound very complex to something should be very simple...

 

thank's Mark,

That should not happen.

 

Here's what I suggest:

 

- check to see if your cabinets are very far from the plan origin (0,0).  The only time I have seen big problems with send to layout is when everything is way out in Timbuktu.

- post your plan.  Someone can see if they get the same results.

- send your plan to tech support.  It looks like a bug to me.

Looks cool, to me that is.

Hi made some other test.

 

I used default Framed door and drawers and put a 1/4" separation between doors and the results was good but in that way, there is no way to set differents colors for parts of door (center and side)

That shouldn't normally happen unless the doors/draws have been created with very poor 3D. I would suggest getting a plan with that problem to our support team to look at.
