Hi all

I have some slab representation problems, wen i add angle to the slab edge, the 2D representation is incorrect but the 3D its good !

The attached image show the correct 2D with the manual red lines.

Do you any solution to fix this representation problem in 2D?

Best Regards

If you need to keep it as a slab there doesn't seem to be an easy option. If you can convert it to a morph it will display as you want.

You could also add a (wall / beam) profile to the edge of the slab as another work around.

If you don't mind using a different tool then a flat (zero pitch) roof will show the angled sides in plan.
So long as you have true 3D projection turned on for roofs in the project preferences.

In 15 I think the roof is the only tool that has the option for a true 3D top view projection in plan.
All other tools show only a representation of the top surface.

Slanted walls and columns will also show correctly.
