Ok. Thanks

Never looked to see "bottom" as a standard view. Always something new to learn. Thanks everyone. Now...how do I add an icon for bottom view to the view toolbar? I'm using SU2013.

I'm trying to create a scene of a ceiling plan. I can easily cut a section looking up at the ceiling, but is there a way to get a clean parallel projection of the ceiling, similar to what I'd get if I clicked "Top View" to get a roof plan? Is there such a thing as "Bottom View", Or a workaround to get the same effect?

Thanks for that tip. Makes a lot of sense.

Ah. I think I see the light. So it's best to draw everything on layer 0, then assign groups or components to an appropriate layer for visibility. Is that the idea?

Is there a quicker way to set the current layer than selecting it through the layer dialogue box? Sure would be nice to have a context menu item like "make layer current" when right-clicking a face.

Got it. Thanks

I use 30 x 42 paper in my practice. It's not listed as a choice in File/document setup/paper. Is there a way to create this size and add it to the drop down list?

That explains perfectly. Thanks.

I'm an Architect, using SU for many years, but am now committed to making the transition from ACAD to Layout. I just purchased Bonnie Roskos Layout 2013 book and am having trouble with the first lesson re shapes. Please see the attached PDF. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
