Title: Print Floor Plan
Post by: Sam Johnson on August 18, 2009, 04:37:02 PM
I'm new to TFP and am using version 12.01.C2.586.  Right now I am trying to draw our current house and have set three locations (actually four, with the foundation).  Each location is at a different level: main house, sun room, and attached garage converted to living space.  What I would like to do is print out one floor plan showing all three locations, which have adjoining walls.  I must be missing a box that needs to be checked or unchecked!

Thanks, Sam

Hi Sam

Welcome to the forum.

TFP basically prints what you have on the screen. Your secondary locations are probably 'greyed out' so you can easily see the one you are working on. Go to Settings/ Program Settings/ Workspace and change the Dimming level while you print.

You may also find useful the item on "Printing Plans and Elevations...." in the Tips and Tricks section of the forum.

Hi Allan

Thanks for the dimming level tip.  That works great!  I have read the 'Printing Plans and Elevations' tip, but have yet to try the procedure.

I have another senario....
I am drawing a poperty with multiple buildings all of which are at different elevations and tied together...I've drawn them as different locations ( eg. "barn", "house" "ell".) otherwise when I change the elevation of one building it changes all of them....

I'm wondering if there if a way to print a 2d view showing all locations (buildings). Presently, I can only print one location at a time......
