- [Instructor] In this video we're going to finish up our stair landing detail and we're going to look at adding regions to a detail. So regions come in two varieties, field regions and masking regions. And if you've been watching the previous videos in this series on creating a detail then you've already seen some examples of field and masking regions. This break line right here actually incorporates a masking region, so the reason it's covering up the geometry underneath is because there's that opaque mask sitting on top and I like to think of it as kind of building a piece of white out. The stipple pattern that you see here inside this stair tread that's an example of a field region so a field region is also an opaque element but it can have a fill pattern inside of it. So there's another example of one here in this steel section here. So you can use field and masking regions to really represent anything you want and if you don't already have a 2D detail component drawn for the…
