Re: dimensions on height or 3d view

Has a side view with dimensions been implemented?
It would be very handy to measure from for building.
I do not know the complications of grouping and rotating the plan view 90 degrees in X or Y, and then adding the dimensions.

Re: Floor and wall gap

Thank you very much for walking me through thinking aloud about what the floor function does, and how to use it. I will definitely avoid a Z fight and adjust the heights accordingly.

Your roof program is a gem. Thank you so much.

Re: Floor and wall gap

update.

I figured out the roof generation problem.
I had to move the generated roof, from the Roof-Gen level it was created on, to another level. Then delete the Roof-Gen level, so the roof generation program could create a new Roof-Gen level for the next roof.

Sorry to mix too thread issues into ...

Re: Floor and wall gap

The gap turned out to be a math problem. sigh.
The elevation of Mezzanine floor should have been 103"

What i was doing:
Placed a room on top of a wall; instead of inside a wall.
Placing it on top of the wall insures that the floor is on top of the wall. If the room is inside the wall then the floor ...

Re: Floor and wall gap

thank you very much.

RE: left wall height difference.
As explained in the introduction of the thread, I added an inch to one wall to close the gap, 89 instead of 88 [just to see how much the gap was].

I will go over the changes to learn from ...

Floor and wall gap

I made a test drawing of a one story house to re-learn how to use levels, walls and floors,because its seems i did not understand them.

Why is there an unexpected 1-inch gap between the 7" thick floor/ceiling and the top of the walls of the first story in this test?

Background
Using SW3D 7.02 ...
