To create a floor, define its boundaries by picking walls or sketching its profile with drawing tools.
- Click Architecture tabBuild panelFloor drop-down (Floor: Architectural).
Where is it?
- Draw the floor boundaries, using one of the following methods:
- Pick walls: By default, Pick Walls is active. If it is not active, click Modify | Create Floor Boundary tabDraw panel (Pick Walls). Select walls in the drawing area to use as floor boundaries.
- Sketch boundaries: To sketch the profile of the floor, click Modify | Create Floor Boundary tabDraw panel, and select a sketching tool. See
Sketching.
The floor boundary must be a closed loop (profile). To create an opening in the floor, you can sketch another closed loop where you want the opening to appear.
- On the Options Bar, for Offset, specify an offset for the floor edges.
Note: When you are using Pick Walls, select Extend into wall (to core) to measure the offset from the wall's core.
