I would like to be able to do this with 3D objects


Recommended Posts

Here's a pretty common UL detail. Thing is, I'd like to model it in 3D and the fills don't really show up & the column sizes will change on every project. 

I can use 4 sets of 16mm walls for the GWB but that seems dopey. Any thoughts on a work-a-round other than making symbols that need to be customized for every column?

I know you have been looking at the AutoHybrid workflow. Did you know that you can use linetypes and Hatches when modeling the 3D objects and they will show up absolutely fine in the AutoHybrid? This is as long as you use Use 2D Attributes of contained Objects for both the Fill and the Pen. I tend to turn off the Below and Above Cut Plane stuff and ddjust the cut plane till I get what I need.

 

I use this method quite a lot for all sorts stuff where I would normally think of making a 2D/3D hybrid symbol.
