Ceiling Grids at multiple elevations

Please see attached PDF. How can I get the higher ceiling grid (14'-0") to show up in this view? I have tried to use a plan region, but I think ceiling grids use a different concept with view depths that I just don't understand. Thanks!

Change Top offset to 14' or more.

Hello @advandes,

 

set your View range as followed:

Or draw a Plan Region with the following View Range Settings:

 

view range ceiling plan 2.png

 

That should do it.

I have tried that. I get the following error:

 

Error: View depth plane is set below the top clip plane.

 

I think ceiling grid view planes are upside down??

...that's because it's backass-backwards with RCP view range...

Is the behavior for RCP offsets the same as for Plans, meaning a positive value like 16' is offsetting upward (going toward the sky) from the target plane, and a negative value like -9' is offsetting downward (going toward the earth)?
