I'm sure I know the answer is (because that's the way we wrote the program) but.....I have a question about posts.
I have a bunch of short platforms for AHU and Chiller supports. So I know the post needs to be 4' tall. So I think to myself, self, lets do a post with base constraint of level 4 and a top constraint of level 4 with a 4'-0" offset making the post 4' tall. If you do that, you can't copy the posts. Why not?
I think I may have found my workaround by setting the base to level 3, then offsetting it by the floor to floor height.
I still find this strange that I can't have the top and bottom constraint at the same level and use offsets.
