Is there anyway to show wwf in a slab? I can place rebar in a slab but can't find any options for placing wwf.

I believe you can define that in the family, kind of like you would with the deck. You may need to be in the "fine" display setting to see it.

You want it to be in 3d or 2d?

1. In 2d you can make a repeating detail to draw the mesh.

2. In 3d you can possibly dupicate a #3 bar then make a new type called "Mesh", or something like that, and give it the width for the mesh diameter. You would have to place it in 2 directions accordingly.

I understand we could place bars to represent what the fabric (or mesh) looks like in section but how would you annotate this as mesh. eg we would annotate mesh as SL82 and not as N8 @ 200 EW etc..

We are resorting to creating a tag that reads the comments parameter so we can annotate what we need. Is there a better way?
