    Allen,
    I never think to use the Floor Camera, but the best I can tell, it will only show objects on the Floor the Camera is on. Nothing above the ceiling or below the floor. It's supposed to generate faster because of less objects in the view. Maybe I should be using this.

    The floor camera render view will also automatically remove the ceiling
    if you tilt/manuever the camera sufficiently. I like it a lot because it lets you get the same effect as a full camera rendered overview with the roof off (doll house view) but maintane full camera rotation etc which is limited some what in full over view.

    Play around and you will see what I mean.

    For simple questions like this, I would always recommend using the online help system first. If you hold your mouse over the toolbar button or menu item you are interested in and press the F1 key, this should take you directly to the appropriate help topic. Then if you have more questions, post here.
