adumi Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 In Autocad Architecture 2011 I`m using tha Build>Wall tool to build walls. I noticed that all walls drawn that way are automatically placed in a layer labeled A-wall. My problem is I need to be able to draw a second floor on top of the first floor I already made and autocad automatically places these walls in the same A-wall layer. The Newer walls I make intersect with the older ones and problems arise. I think I need to be able to create walls in different layers and assign each a different Elevetion value ( according to the floor/story number) but I just don`t understand how to move these walls to any other layer than A-wall. (If anyone has any other idea how to tackle this issue of drawing diffrenet floors - to each it`s own wall plan, I`d be thankful for suggestions) Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noahma Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Are you using the Project Manager? This is the easiest way to lay out a building. Each level is its own file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tzframpton Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I'll confirm what Noahma said. Constructs is what you're after and.... have fun, because you have a lot to learn. But it's well worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
