Column cross-hairs

John Dunham

I have cylindrical columns with the tops of them located below the floor plan cut plane. I want to have the cross hairs display in plan but they only seem to show up when the cut plane goes through the columns. I need the cut plane to stay where it is so that I can show some notches in a concrete wall. Is there any way to make the cross hairs display in plan without cutting through the columns?

When you place your columns make their floor plan display " symbolic cut"

Thank you Jesikuh! "Symbolic cut" was greyed out so I couldn't select it but I fiddled with the home storey (AC was automatically assigning it to another storey) and that then allowed me to select "symbolic cut". Thanks again...
