JohnAB Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Folks, I have a problem in the attached file I created in Home Designer Pro 2019 2022a4octagonal.plan The semi-octagonal entry room protruding on the left is meant to be open to the level above, so I used the "open below" feature on the 2nd floor to create it. My problem is that a floor camera view from inside level 1 of that room shows the first floor wall is ok but above that the room is open to the sky above (see screenshot below). In spite of this, a "full perspective overview" camera shows it works fine from the outside. Even using that outside camera to look at the inside through the window everything looks fine. Curiously, I sent it to my friend who uses Home Designer Pro 2020 and the floor camera view from inside the room worked fine for him, although the 1st floor crown moldings .remained and looked a bit flaky. I will paste his result below as well. 2022a4octagonal.planUnavailable What have I done wrong? Many thanks for any guidance. You folks are very impressive, I have tapped forums before as a reader but this is my first post. Thanks again, John 2022a4octagonal.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problems like this may often be resolved by reviewing the documentation. Reading about the Floor Camera would reveal that it only renders a single floor.

Steve1 Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 did you ever got the full camera to work. I have the 2022 version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnAB Posted January 25, 2022 Author Share Posted January 25, 2022 Yes the full camera worked fine thanks! I also upgraded to 2022 and found that indeed the floor camera (which caused my confusion) has been removed from the toolbar. No great loss!
