Hardscape Slab modifier

[alfresco]

I am working a a site design with slope.  I have created a site model and am developing a number of hardscape elements with the option slab modifier (top or bottom).  However, when I update the model I am not getting the results expected.  The site model is not conforming to the elevation constraints as specified.  I am not sure why?  Any suggestions?  Thanks,

Do you have the model set to show the proposed (not sure if that is the term used. I don't have VW open right now) instead of the existing?

Pat,  I have have tried a number of options.  There are a number of exiting hardscape pads in place such a the residential front entrance pad.  I have tried a number of options and as you suggest editing for hardscape existing (tried existing and proposed) and new hardscape (existing and proposed ).  However,  the model is not updating as expected.  I would expect the site model to be set to the modified pad elevations as specified?  It is still a problem!

Thanks for your input.

cheers, lm

@alfresco are using the grade limits around your pads? If not this should help.

@alfresco - Post your file, and I will give it a look.

Thanks for having a look.  I am getting mixed results and not totally as expected.  Site model still not updating to reflect slab modifiers?

@alfresco what version did you save that in, it's not opening in Vectorwork 2020...

Yes sorry... I am playing around in 2021.  I thought that I would try to get a feel for some of the new toys...

@alfresco - Looks to me like you need to set 3D display style to "proposed only" for the site model.  Those modifiers on the hardscape only affect what is shown on the proposed model.
