Laurali Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 I asked a question a few days ago about drawing a window straddling 2 floors in stairwell.I got some good answers but now there's a new problem. I want to have a higher window aligned with the window between 2 floors. That window is on the same floor as the cased opening I created. Is there some way to show this other than drawing it on the elevation in annotation mode? Quote Link to comment
AlanW Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 (edited) Do you want it directly above and attached or wall between? If you have the Windoor option for inseting doors and windows you can do the following attached. Edited April 30, 2015 by Alan Woodwell Quote Link to comment
CipesDesign Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 You can have a second (or third, or fourth!) window directly above another window in the same Design Layer. Simply use Duplicate Array, with settings of X Offset = 0, Y Offset = 0, and Z Offset = 48" (e.g.). The only thing that can get dicey is trying to select one or the other - you'll need to do this in a 3d View. Also, nearly ever time I do this I end up creating a new Design Layer (called Clerestory) in order to be able to have accurate and discreet Plan View depictions of the placement of the openings. Although a note to "see elevation " would perhaps suffice. Quote Link to comment
