windows display problem


Recommended Posts

Sometimes, for some reason; our windows have a strange invisible pane at right angles to the rest of the window...

It's annoying, and some times prints which obviously causes a problem!

does anyone know what it is, and how to get rid of it? you can only see it when you hover over the window with your mouse... but as I said, it also sometimes prints...

See pics for clarity!!

Cheers

You have door and window objects stacked on top of each other and Vw shows them all. It doesn't create the 2D from a theoretical section plane at 4' above floor level.

You may have to resort to modelling your walls in two two parts split over two Design Layers. ie. up to say 8' in the first Design Layer with the remainder in the second Design Layer. If the first Design Layer's delta z is 8' then the Z of the second design Layer will be 8'.

Are you talking about the rectangular bottom windows not showing? If so, it is because the jamb/trim of the door is overlapping it.

Try setting the wall doors and windows to different colors and it will be easier to see.

If it is something else, you need to explain better what you are seeing that should/should not be there.

I'll try explain better...

In picture 1 above the door is selected, but the mouse isn't hovering over it. All seems to be fine, the door is displaying properly.

In picture 2 the mouse is hovering over the door and you can see something the same width of the door leaf at right angles to the door, as thought the door leaf has rotated 90 degrees within the frame.... this happens with windows sometimes too, in many unrelated situations.

It also prints out showing this random right angle, which as you can tell is quite annoying... but only sometimes!

I hope that makes a bit more sense..!
