LAYOUT BOOK DRAWING VIEW

Anonymous — Fri, 19 May 2023 13:32:16 GMT

Once in a while weird stuff happens... like today.

In my View Map I have a Drawing called "Floor Framing Plan". I set up the layers the way I like and save "view settings". Then it's ready to take over to the Layout Book as is typical. However, with the particular drawing, when I take it over to the layout book, layers are missing.. so to check, i select the drawing in the layout book and right click to "View Source". It all looks great there. So why is this drawing not showing all the layers.

I checked that I did not have renovation filters interferring. This isn't happening with the other drawings brought into the Layout Book. So this one stumps me. Have'nt had this happen before. A possible solution excapes me.

Any ideas what would cause interference with the layers showing correctly?

Embarrassing to say, but this could help someone with the same problem.

Reason why it wasn't showing in the Layout book was because even though it was a -1 story with the floor framing showing there, the flooring members were set on the 1 story with the members set below at a -1'-0 elevation. Setting those members to the -1 story and then adjusting the elevation made it all work as it should. So for me not setting the framing member on the correct story was my mistake, although I usually set the member up before it's laid into place.. it does happen.

Answered my own question.
