Found it

Sorry, what I can’t find is the Condoc Toolbar

Thanks Mike,

The Condoc System window opens fine, It’s the Condoc Tools window that I can’t find.  I think it used to show up at the same time as the System window

Yes, I’m referring to reference grid lines that show up on all plans except perspectives (horizontal on floor, foundation, and roof plans, and vertical on elevations and sections).  Here’s what I did:

I created 2 new layers: ELEMENT_Grid lines Horizontal & ELEMENT_Grid lines Vertical and assigned a dotted line instead of ‘Default’ for those layers.

Then added a ‘Dashed grid’ scene as another viewport to all relevent construction drawings in the ConDoc configurator.  Only the appropriate Grid line layer is visible in these ‘Dashed grid’ scenes.

When exported to Layout, the drawings show up with a light dotted line in accurate grid locations.  I can use these dotted lines to accurately place ‘column grid’ tags from the scrapbook fairly quickly.

Here’s the problem:

The dotted lines show up in Layout on the Foundation Plan, Roof Plan, Elevations, and Sections beautifully.  It does not however show up on the Construction Plans.  I’ve checked the layers, scenes, and Condoc configurator set-up and everything looks right.

stumped.

Hey Mike,

It seems like the problem is that the Roof Plan – dashed scene uses the same section cut as the Construction Plan 01 – Heavy, which is set at a height below the second floor walls.   I guess a fix would be to create a new section for the Roof Plan – dashed scene, and then to update active section planes in that scene.  Is there a reason that Condoc uses a section that is that low to show wall locations on a roof plan?

Ahh,  I haven’t made it that far yet.

Thanks for your time and the prompt responses, I have a good feeling about this Condoc system!

Cheers,

Corey

Awesome, closed the outliner and no prob.

I am not using a custom drawing set – just whatever is default.  I don’t actually understand what a ‘drawing set’ is…?

• Not sure of the model size, but not big, and no images

I will send you my model to have a look.

Also, when I set-up my project through the plan generator it seems to set it up 4 times (4 sets of scenes)….?
