Hi all

I use a plan region to show the window below the cutting plane and that worked but what happened is that the cut pattern of the wall mirrored the the plan region area.the wall is a standard 230 wall nothing funny about it.

It looks like you may have two walls overlaying each other.

No i had a look, on top of one another but not overlapping.

Seems to happen on any wall with a diagonal hatch pattern. Tried 'flipping' the plan region by dragging one side to the other and it had no effect. Mucked with view ranges and that didn't do anything either. Tested using R7

Yeah!


Why still working on 7?????
Working is the operative word here. Big project in R7; almost complete; not willing to upgrade at this critical stage; no time to work on new stuff in R8. Downloaded it the day it was available and still haven't had the time to give it a good test drive :-(

But this is why we have people like yourself to make sure we all know the world is a better place with R8 :-)

Dimitri, I would say go for it, but that would probably come back and bite me in
the #$%^$@*. This might help, we have upgraded all jobs, the smallest being a 90MB file, No prob. We are finding V8 slightly quicker and file sizes, slightly smaller. As far as User Interface, you have to look for it to notice the difference although the difference's are fantastic. We desperatley needed Dims to legend components ( reason for upgrading projects), As we go we are finding all these cool little things.
