Ceiling plan&Detail Tool

Is Graphisoft unable to handle the reflected ceiling plan? There is also a detailed plan of plane cutting. I see that these two functions have significant flaws and have not been improved for over a decade.

Hi,

Usually, I model the ceiling at the correct height and use a GO to make it visible in a separate view, and I haven't had any issues so far.

I also recently started to use curtain wall to model them and it worked great.

hope this helps.

The ceiling plan is not like the reflective ceiling plan made in a 3D document, it is still in a top-down state; Detail drawing tools cannot produce views with grids like elevation tools and are disconnected from the model. I think AC in the field of views should learn well from Revit.
