…In this movie, we're going to look at some techniques that…we can use to refine our 2D section elevation objects.…Now, as you may recall, when you generate a…section or an elevation from an AutoCAD Architecture model, it…actually creates a separate two dimensional version of that elevation…but that elevation is linked back to the original model.…So to talk about some of the ways we can refine those, I'm in a…project called Refine Elevations, and I have the…Elevations and sections view file open on screen.…Now I've got four elevations in here in one section,…and they're all tied back to this model over here.…
The first tip that I can give you is probably the most important.…You really want to resist the urge to explode these elevations.…Now sometimes it could be a little tempting to do that.…You know, you're click on the elevation…and there's something you don't like about it.…There's some piece of line work that you don't want to see or something and…you just want to erase that or you want to move it or make a copy.…
