Good Job it wasnt a FIAT @Jim Smith (insert your own acronym 🙂

@markdd I've had that. I'm glad you highlighted it. I thought I was losing my mind.

ha ha Kevin mid way through a render! A great experience!

Rendered perfectly in the end 🙂 @Zoomer

Further to my recent post regarding Matisseian rendering (left) I was pleasantly surprised to find RenderCezanne turn up today mid render. 🙂 (right, top obv)

@lineweight this was done in RW using a standard create viewport from a clip cubed perspective view cheers D

Are you saying the simple stair is legacy and the (newer) stair tool is the one which doesn't show solid? I abandoned the newer stair tool some time ago being much happier in legacy-luddite land! I love the visualization of the clip cube tool especially as you can also do cut throughs in perspective. I have to say we used to issue 3-4 versions of our planning drawings (x8 dwgs) (x35 jobs a year) but now we only have to issue 2 versions as the clients "get" the space almost immediately. It saves soooo much time and is a pleasure to work with. This advanced feature was introduced in 2019 so credit where credit is due! I give you the 4 storey Richmond beast!

Hi @Christiaan I don't seem to suffer from that particular problem? This is taken from a clip cube into a sheet layer using a standard create viewport command. The stair is derived from the simple stair tool. Or maybe I've misunderstood? Happy to help if I can cheers D

2 to 3d is indeed a steep learning curve. It requires a lot more effort and time up front. This can reap rewards if you end up issuing at least 2-4 revisions plus for planning and working drawings, particularly if you like decent renders etc and or need to be efficient /faster/ more accurate etc. We have become 40% more efficient in doing this over the long term. On a note of caution however the programme (and I think its the same for others ?) is not brilliant at real fine tune detailing which we still do in 2d over 3d models. Hope this helps!

@Markvl Aha. hasn't happened for a while but just did. Took me a while to find your thread. This is by no means a scientific answer but having had a play around I discovered if I altered the thickness of the problem-roof the double miter returned!
