How to view objects below ground level

Anonymous · ‎2012-02-19

So I am using the 'sea level' for my basement plans. It has walls, stairs, etc...
The problem is, they don't show up at all in 3D view - how can I change this so I can view everything in 3D?

I did it once before but I can't seem to remember how I did that... CAD block...

Thanks

Check the Filter Elements in 3D dialog box, it might be excluding your basement story.

It is set on 'Infinite' in the filter dialogue box, though I did try from basement to roof, didn't make a difference.

Have you tried going to 3D mode via an elevation?

You can also try right-click and select "Show All in 3D", or see if you have a 3D Cutting Plane and 3D Cutaway is checked.
