how do you remove lines from between 'layers'

and why to vertical corners disappear being visible on some layers but not adjacent layers

[Guest]

Are you referring to the boxes to the left of the layer name in the layers drop down menu?

Where do you see lines in layers? In the layers dialog box?

no the lines I'am talking about appear on the drawing at the points between the 'layers' that are linked to produce the perspective

Ahh the lines at the bottom of each floor - that's what you want to get rid of?

There isn't a way around that.

Well there is, but it's not very pratical for most Architects.

You can draw the exterior wall around the house on one single layer and make the height of the walls that of the height of all floors combined.

The line is a seam between the floors that can't be erased.

It shows up in rendered mode with textures too. Most of the time it can be masked or fit so you can't see the seam, but every now and then the texture shows the truth.

I suppose when you are ready to print, you could export the drwaing to an image editor and get rid of the line.

Can you further describe the vertical corners problem?

I've seen this advice crop up a bit, i.e. to draw one wall full height. I was wondering if it's possible (for reasons other than the horizontal line problem) to combine a model that's already made up of separate walls and layers, to achieve this effect?
