Structural Grid

To All,
While creating the automatic structural grid on plan, is it possible to transfer automatically the grid on the elevation drawings? If so, is it linked?

Thank you

Not currently. There are '3D' grids available as library parts. Other than that your best option is to copy & paste. Completely 2D and unlinked.

Cheers,

As far as I know, it is not possible to have a linked structural grid (great for the wish list). However, it is really easy and fast to copy the grid (or part of it from the floor plan and paste it into the elevation. Just remember when (if) you get the dialogue box asking if you want to paste into the current view or to the original location to paste to the original location. It will then conform it its positioning in the floor plan.

You can use the Structural Grid command in the Section/Elevation window but I think the above method is faster and less prone to error.

It's not possible!
But, you can try this addon "object tool pack" from CadImage
