Issue with Cut fills in plan vs section.....

Anonymous
Not applicable
I need to represent an 8" block wall in plan showing the block fill at 16" (length) and in section at 8" (height).

Perhaps this is something easy and I am just missing it here. But when I alter the fill perameters it doesn't represent in this way. Instead I can get either a block wall showing only 8" in both views or 16" in both views, neither of which is acceptable.

A Wall's Cut Fill will be the same in Plan as in Section (I believe there is a Wish List item, wishing for a distinction).

What scale are you working with? For floor plans and building sections, we assign a crosshatch fill (these are typically no greater than 1/4" scale), and for wall sections and details we use a 2D masonry object to indicate coursing.
