    pony wall shower enclosure

    Anyone know how to show the glass wall over the tile wall in plan. In addition, make the door jambs show up on the plan also
    (see images)
    Thanks

    Well, I usually will just add a solid fill to whatever my glass is, and there is no door jamb for glass shower doors. Also you all ready have it done in your last picture? There you go...fixed!

    Thanks Gary. I would like to avoid having to add cad lines to "fix" it, as shown in the image labeled "this is what I would like to see". I Wish there was a way to show both the upper and lower pony walls at the same time, rather than either or, in plan view.

    Charles:

    Charles,

    Just use a Glass Wall & Door. Then use PLine Solids for the lower walls.

    If you want a metal door frame , you can adjust the frame in the door "DBX". Change the material also. I use the casing changed to tile when there is a full wall.

    Lew, yep this is a half (aka railing) wall / pony wall. I do this to control the height.

    Joe, this is great if I know exactly what the design is, but its more work in the conceptual stage where im moving walls around and changing door sizes ect. Using walls and doors is much simpler for me (unless i'm doing it bass akwards )

    Yep, I can use a glass door and change the frame around to make a thin metal frame and, in theory, since it is a railing wall I can make the rails and post act as metal frames too (I havent tried it yet).

    I meant use a half wall only - skip the pony wall
