Re: Negative Elevation for Furniture
Hans, do appreciate you taking the time to try and assist me. I am sorry if I came across as grumpy.

From what I have found with sh3d (and I am fairly new to it) preceding levels do not show up on the 2 dimension pdf floor plan. Is this true, or is there possibly a setting to alter this behaviour? If true then creating the verandah in a lower level, using any method at all will not solve the problem I have.

The verandah slab (150mm high) and the step up into the building (100mm high) are all the same level from a construction perspective. Therefore I need to show them on the same floor plan with dimensions for construction purposes.

I am familiar with ctrl+A (and most other windows keyboard shortcuts). Does it not select everything on the drawing (A = all)? All walls, rooms, furniture, text, etc. I was just wondering if there was a shorter way to select just the walls on my existing drawing. It wouldn't be a big deal if it were a simple building but there are already hundreds of walls and probably more than 1000 items of furniture (I can't see a count anywhere?).

I'm thinking that I will have to spend some time grouping furniture into 20 or so major groups by their respective elevation and type. Then ctrl+A becomes a bit more feasible as I should be able to de-select the furniture, etc using ctrl+left_mouse_click.

It is all a learning curve for me. Thanks again for your help Hans.
