View looking up?

[Tom Phillips]

This may have been posted before but I'm in a hurry to complete a project. I need to create a view looking up at the bottom of steel beam. Can a upward view be created? And how?

It is called a section.... You can cut it in an elevation or another section view.

Or perhaps use a Reflected Ceiling Plan?

Or--Use an Underlay in your Floor Plan or Framing Plan.

Also, please clarify:

Do you need a 2D view, or a perspective 3D view?

cheers

At first this does not work because Sections are vertical only while being placed in the view. But then you can rotate them and look up. Thats COOL!

Thanks for your help!
