Object Floor Plan Display

I got the wall but I don't seem to be able to get the door above to shown on the current floor.

Like the walls, I want the doors associated with the walls from the above floor to be shown on the current floor.

This is driving me nuts!

Lilian, you can do this with Trace. You can set up the Trace with any colour or with original colour. Unless I am misunderstanding what you want.

Cheers,
Gerald

Thanks Gerald....I don't want to draw twice using the trace. I am quite sure it got to do with the floor plan display setting for the door / window to show in floor above or below .... Maybe the visibility is only for walls!....

Trace is not only to enable you to trace and draw over things. You can also show or print the whatever you are showing as a trace in your plans. As far as I know there is no way to have only windows and doors showing without the enclosing walls so it might no do what you want it to do.

In the Trace Palette you can select which items you would like to show on the Trace drawing. See attached image.
