Beam overhead lines above ceiling

hello, everybody.

 

I have such situation on the floor plan: 1.Floor(slab) - 2.cut plane above 1.Floor - 3.tilted beam above 2.cut plane - 4.ceiling(slab) above part of 3.tilted beam - and another part of 3.tilted beam above 4.ceiling. There is an overhead line of  full beam on the floor plan, but should be only part(under ceiling). What should I do to hide part of the beam above 4.ceiling(slab)?

It would be best if you posted a few screenshots so we can see what the exact situation is.

Try these settings for the Beam as shown in the screenshot:

1. "Floor Plan Display" field to "Projected with Overhead".

2. "Projection Mode" to "Hybrid", and "Overhead" to "Projected".

3. "Show Projection" to "To Floor Plan Range".
