How to create a walkout basement?

[jbrace]

I pulled a walkout that I had created in 3D Home Architect 4.0 in to Suite 6.04 to see what would happen. I had no problems.

This is what I did:

1. Opened the 3D Home Architect 4.0 plan in Suite 6.04.

2. Created a Terrain Perimeter.

3. Turned off (unchecked) Flatten Pad and Auto Calculate Elevation in the Terrain Specification dialog.

4. Drew my Elevation Lines. (0 at the front of the house and -96 at the rear walkout.)

5. Clicked Build Terrain.

Everything looked normal in both 3D and Cross Section views.

You should not have to recreate the plan in Suite. This thread describes how to paste a plan: How to Paste Thread

Good luck,
Jim
