Now, you'll notice, obviously we've got the floor plan, and we've created a nice elevation there of that east wall of the house. Now, if you look to the top right corner of the drawing area, you can see the ViewCube. And you can see that we are in the top view, which is a flat 2d view, obviously, because we're working in a 2d plan environment. So it's all flat. We don't need to worry about 3d.
