Floor Plan Cut Plane Setting

Anonymous
Not applicable
I think I still don't understand this setting. I'll explain my question as simple as I know. I have equal walls in the same story, 1st wall base elevation:-2,95m, top elevation:-0,55; 2nd wall b:-1,91m t:0,49m - both wall height is 2,4m. When in 2D view, I can't see lower based wall hatch pattern, while the upper hatch is normally visible. I think there is a problem with floor plan cut plane setting, but I can't set it right.
I hope someone can help me with this.

Thanks in advance,
Rok

Rok:

If you want both walls to have the same wall hatch pattern, then set them to Floor Plan and Section > Floor Plan Display > Floor Plan Display > Symbolic Cut, this will ignore the Floor Plan Cut Plan (FPCP). If you want to use a different wall display, then make sure the FPCP is set to cut through all walls where their section is the same (above -1,91m and below -0,55 in your example), and that all walls have the same Floor Plan Display setting (as well as Reno setting).
