![]() Have 3 all at the same elevation but different heights, effectively giving three ceiling heightsĪ further 3, each with an elevation to match the ceiling below, your roof's. I will still require the skylight White liners if I want the skylights to look realistic from above if I have reverted the roofs to dark grey.įootnote: *I could possibly split my ground level building into several levels all at zero height but I think the pragmatic approach suggested above is easier. I will then default the three roofs to white ( the preferred ceiling colour ) and simply change the roof colours back to dark grey for any aerial video or photos - its not a big deal and will take only a few seconds. I can still achieve everything I currently want simply by prioritising the Sweethome ceiling for the one room where I use a texture (wood slat ceiling) currently - the limitation being that any other ceilings in other areas that also require this texture must be at the same height as the first, other rooms will have the "show ceiling" option false so that the roof slab shows as ceiling. I have since discovered that for a given construction on one level it is only possible to have one unique ceiling height whereas I would need three different ceiling heights to cover up my grey roof when seen from below* However each roof "slab" will get the same colour on the underside as on the top face so a dark grey roof will deliver a dark grey ceiling unless the Sweethome "show ceiling" option is used since that will "cover-up" the underside of the roof with a different texture or colour. What I was trying to do here was to deploy Sweethome 'levels' having a single ground level for the whole building and then have raised levels at different heights to be used as the basis for flat roofs at different heights ( although the roofs were actually floors as far as Sweethome was concerned ). Just an update if anyone tries a similar design in future - ie one that is essentially a house with a single floor level but multiple ceiling and roof heights. I do wonder however if it is possible to edit the Blog whether it might prove useful to add something to the title to include roof as well as walls. Yes thanks to Veronique, good article probably more coherent than my attempt as well. I instinctively like the idea of being able to group and organise all the roof stuff in different levels representing different heights, it might be worth checking to see if there are any issues having an additional ground zero level just for the invisible cut out boxes just to keep it tidy. Somehow I don't feel it was a waste of time, good learning experience and now I have entered the world of levels which I think will give benefits. I will look at your suggestion for the "liner" not quite sure what the "check the box for the stairs" bit means - if that will somehow autosize the hatch then it would probably be less work. I guess I did not pick up on it because it only mentioned walls in the title, I did pick up on the later "How To Design A Sloping Ceiling With A Window" I have been aware of that one but it wasn't really what I needed. Thanks, yes it looks like its pretty much the same thing, the article is even in the Tips and Tricks section where I looked!
