Zone Tool AC25

omerckr — Thu, 29 Sep 2022 11:28:59 GMT

Hello everyone!

I have a question about the use of the zone tool. I haven't really used it before and wanted to use the zone tool for interior wizard elements.

I draw the area with the zone tool but the zone fill (or colour) also appears on my sections as well and blocks the proper view. Is there a way to remove the zone fill from the section and elevation views but keep it kinda hidden on the floor plans?

Thanks!

Zones can be turned of in sections by a switch in Project Preferences > Legacy.

Or you can leave the zones on and make them transparent, or an easier (I think) is to have the zones in their own layer, and just turn the layer off in sections (layer combinations required).

Here is some more reading on the subject.

Thanks for the help! These work just fine. Especially the first recommendation.
