What are the best View Range Settings for plans and reflected ceiling plans?
A27. Plans: Cut Plane = 3′-9″ (this allows for seeing receptacles above 3′-0″ high countertops but will exclude switches); Top = Associated Level, offset 7′-6″; Bottom = Associated Level, offset 0′-0″; View Depth = Associated Level, offset 0′-0″ NOTE: In plan, you will always be able to see 4′-0″ below the associated level, if you have a change of plane equal or less than 4′-0″. This allows for seeing to the bottom of dropped areas of floors, ramps or pits normally without having to change the View Depth. It may be an undesirable thing in soem cases, but it is built into the program and cannot be changed.

This allows for seeing to the bottom of depressed areas of floors, ramps or pits normally without having to change the View Depth. It may be an undesirable thing in soem cases, but it is built into the program and cannot be changed.
