topic Cut plane behaviour in Modeling https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/Cut-plane-behaviour/m-p/257780#M135353 <DIV class="actalk-migrated-content"><T>Sometimes AC doesn't behave as expected. I'm using AC18 for this project and have the cut plane at it's default 1150 mm above my current floor. I create a 2072 high opening in a wall. This is well above the cutting plane, isn't it? So why does my standard floor plan NOT show a break at the position of the opening? What I want is to show the head of the opening as a dashed or hidden line at the position of the opening. How can I make this happen automatically? I naively thought that this is what the cutting plane was for.</T></DIV> Wed, 24 May 2023 06:43:21 GMT KeesW 2023-05-24T06:43:21Z Cut plane behaviour https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/Cut-plane-behaviour/m-p/257780#M135353 <DIV class="actalk-migrated-content"><T>Sometimes AC doesn't behave as expected.
