sad   Basement in 3D View
I'm having trouble seeing the basement in the 3D 'flying around' view. I can see down the stairway from the main floor, but only immediately around the stairs (a very narrow view).

In the video here: this Sean seems to be getting an unobstructed view of his basement. Is that because he's pushed the elevation of the basement up to ground level? Or is there some other way of seeing in there?

I can attach/send a file if my explanation is unclear or viewing it would help.

Very cool tool this Sweet Home 3D. You might even say, it's sweet... unless that's been overused since last century. smile

One thing I left out...

This is with "Display all Levels" selected in the 3D view.

Hi MovingDude
It looks like Sean has changed the wall transparency to enable this type of view - 3D View > modify 3D View > and slide to the right.
I have a feeling that this only applies to walls above ground level, though i am not sure, which might be why he changed the floor elevation.

Yeah, you may be right, but it's definitely hard to tell. Thanks for the reply.
