Matt Hall Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I am laying out an acoustical ceiling in a building, It looks like I need to draw the ceiling twice, first with the ceiling tile tool for 2d drawings and a then with the ceiling tile slab for 3d drawings. Old workflow Use the Ceiling tile tool. I create poly from walls and change the poly to a ceiling tile object. Then adjust the grid to fit in the room and lights the way I want. This has worked well for 2d drawings. New Workflow I started by creating a slab from the walls and use the ceiling tile slab that is already in vector work. This made a convincing acoustical ceiling in 3d but It does not seem to show up as a grid ceiling in 2d. I also need to adjust the grid to fit each room. The flow between modeling and construction documents has come a long way. I can't believe there is not a way to layout a ceiling grid quickly and have it work for 2d and 3d Am I missing something?
