techdef Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Someone probably beat me to this, years ago, but I have trouble with the search feature on this site... So, for those of us who really like the idea of the roof tool but are frustrated that it doesnt show hatch or texture in Top/Plan viewports... I had an idea today that worked rather than drawing a ton of dumb polys on top to get the hatch right, Get your roofplan VP up and happy in Top/Plan & Wireframe view; the default. Duplicate the VP. Turn off all classes except whatever your hatch is in (in this case, Component-Ext-Finish-Roofing). Change VP background render to Hidden Line. (see 2VPs.png below). Align the duplicate VP on top of the original. (see Merged.png below). May not be perfect, but does 98% of what I needed, and is live geometry so no duplication of effort when the roof changes later on... 2 Quote Link to comment
