Showing elements in different stories

Anonymous
Not applicable
I have a 3 story building with a drawing of the site made with the mesh tool.
The site is drawn on the GL, along with some trees.
When working on stories above, I can'T see the mesh nor tree unless i do "show as reference"

But is there a way to set certain elements so that regardless of which story it was placed on, it shows up (not as trace ref) on different stories?

thank you in advance.

Hi There,

Here is what you need to do for the terrain (Mesh) and the Trees (Object):
  • Modify the Settings of the desired Mesh or Object elements ( not necessarily the Floor Plan Cut Plan of the View)

    Go to the "Floor Plan and Section" tab

    Change the "Show on Stories " option from Home Story Only to All Stories or to Custom. This will make them Visible by default in all Plan Views.

    Control their visibility in other plan views with the Layers.

That should do the trick.
