      I know this is a really dumbquestion but here goes:

      I have been watching some tutorials of various products and keep wondering how people get interior views of buildings?

      In particular, I have looked at some sample models on CL3VER (and some other sites) and see that people include interior views. In one case I even downloaded a sample from the 3D Warehouse that was used in a webinar. The person showed an exterior and interior view of the model. When I downloaded the model it just had one view. I tried hiding some walls but that did not seem to produce the same results.

      How do you create an interior view of a building?

        OK - I pulled my head out of my back side and see how people are doing this. I have to learn to take better advantage of layers and hiding/showing them in different scenes.

        However, I have not done any testing yet and was wondering what layers and scenes do to file sizes. I guess the real way for me to understand this better is to do some testing.

        Someday I will learn to use the tool better and will not embarrass myself with stupid questions like this one.

        Maybe, and I hope so after I showed my ignorance, someone else will learn from my posting this dumb question. 😳

            Why don't you simply zoom in until you knock a wall and then further, until you're inside the building?

            After that adjust your point of view and play with the menu "camera > field of view"

              You can also use the Section Cut Tool to view inside your buildings. The Section Cut Plane can then be placed on a different layer and hidden, but the Cut will still be active.
