View Full Version : Level tied to Ceiling plans instead of Floor Plans

A co-worker came to me with a problem that has me stumped today.

At some point along the course of the project, the level tags (in section and elevation) became tied to the ceiling plans instead of the floor plans. We're not sure when it happened but today she noticed that all the level said Level X Ceiling Plan instead of Level X Plan... so she tried to change the names, but she couldn't because the name was already in use??? by the floor plan. We worked around it by renaming all the floor plans (which are no longer tied to anything!!!) and then renaming the ceiling plans which updated all the level tags in the sections and elevations. Double clicking a level tag takes you to a reflected ceiling plan.

But I want to know what happened here and if anyone knows how to sew Peter Pan back to his shadow before I send this one to the factory.

Don't worry about it, I think for some reason when you create a level under floor plan options its set to ceiling and floor plan so it automatically makes a ceiling plan of the level. then you rename the floor plan, but haven't given thought to the ceiling plan so when you rename it it is the last plan tied to the level so it seems more important than it really is.
