House on cylindrical blocks

Post by JochenL »

Hi - I'm new to this and I'm just drawing a house that sits on a series of cylindrical concrete foundation blocks. The whole house is 900mm off the ground. How can I achieve this / raise the whole house up to then position my blocks under the house? Thank you!

Use Levels...
level 1 - ground = elevation 0 - draw cyl. blocks here
level 2 - house = elevation 90 -

You may want to use the inbuilt HELP and consider reading the User's guide??

Hi,

The better (after testing myself) is to add a new level (with no change to existing house).

Image

The old must begin to 0,90 m
The new must begin to 0 with height = 0,9

Regards.

Thanks a lot BDFD, for your quick response! It is really silly on my side to ask this funda question. Though I am new, should have read well before.

Your response pointed a good number of libraries for furniture and shapes etc. I now have this shapes as default in my machine. Over the last two days, I downloaded 2 different examples and copying furniture and other components from those.

Thanks again!!
