Displaying Floor Material

**Skip** · 05-31-2006, 04:45 PM

Quick question I think ... How do I display a floor tile pattern in plan view??? I've selected a tile in the library material in the room dialogue / material box / floor covering. I also turned on the "room fill pattern" in the layer display options ... but no luck ... what am I missing??
Thanks,
Skip.

the "Room Fill Pattern" layer can be turned on or off in "2-D" just like any other layer; have you checked that? (You first have to select a "Fill Pattern" for each room via its "Room Dialog Box - Fill Tab" first; did you do that?

David - Okay, I just selected a "room fill" pattern in the dialogue box ... problem is that the floor pattern shows through the vanity and the platform tub??
Thanks,

Then Open the vanity and platform tub symbols and give them a "Fill" by checking "Use Default" on the "Fill Tab" of each symbol and make the room fill "Transparent" (it is a check box on the "Fill Tab" in each "Room Dialog" per room.
