Underlaying Plans

I try to underlay the roof plan under the first level and vice versa so I can control structural matters and how the roof fits the plan. SOme how it does NOT underlay. However it doesn underlay the ground floor under the first floor and vice versa; the first floor under the ground floor. I have attached the file .I have also restarted the programbut still the issue is NOt resolved. Mant Thanks in advance.

Hey @Anonymous

 

 

On the first floor level ...You need to set the following:

  1. Base: Range level to LEVEL1 CIELING 
  2. Underlay Orientation: LOOK UP

This way you will see the roof underlay on the First Floor...

 

If you set ROOF as Range level and look up you will see the sky basically

often when a memeber realises the fact taht I ma not a begginer and approaches my question form a more advanced point of view they are able to be more helpful. For isntance I don't see such thing on my Revit which you had shown me.

I am not sure what this has to do with you being a beginner or advanced?!

 

You just need to set underlay to LEVEL1CEILING and NOT  ROOF ....

 

So regardless of the version you are are using Puya; you are looking at the wrong level...The Level ROOF is way so high above the building so it is an underlay of nothing literally

the other option is to go to view range and setup all the options to one level like below. Else Revit since its BIM will overlap info and get confused and wont show anything.
