Baseboards showing in plan

Eric Milberger
Advocate

I have great elevations after editing my walls and added baseboards.

I took my Composite wall and made it a  complex Provile  -

I edited the surfaces for a stepped slab AND

Then added the baseboard.

 

The only problem is the baseboard and corner round trim show on the plans where doors should have removed the baseboard.  

The PDF is fine - it is when building the drawings that this shows and confuses what is to be created.  the Plan should be WYSIWYG

Would you be able to show some screenshots of the issue?

I'd be glad to but cant see how to do so.  I tried to paste and it says I don't have permissions.  I have a file to upload or paste into the comment.

 

PDF is fine, Plans are fine.  It is the model I  am working in that shows the baseboards across the doorway

@Eric Milberger  On attaching the screenshot... did you click the camera icon in the toolbar for the post composition mini editor?  I don't believe you can drag/drop or paste an image...but we're all new to this platform...

Are you using the Floor Plan Cut Plane with all elements set appropriately and the depth of view not extending into the baseboard area?

Save your screen shot as an image file.

Then use the 'Insert Photo' button when replying.

Does that allow you to attach images?

I would assume it at least extends to the floor as I see the floor

It is a problem wit Chrome - I reinstalled and check on another machine, and it is Chrome.  MS edge works here

 

This shows 2 walls - top wall has a basboard and the bottom has a baseboard and cornround.  In hte model they all show through but not as built

It looks this way in both model and saved view.  the pdf is correct

I would expect what I see to be WYSIWYG

Otherwise, like what happened = I spend an hour trying to find what I was doing wrong  only to find the plot was correct but my plans do not look like my plot.
