In the Style Manager, you can specify Ceiling Antler ceiling perimeter support extrusion with a solid over solid stack style. After you create and save a wall style with a Ceiling Antler, your style appears in the ICE Product Palette, and you can draw it in ICE 2D plan view.
Note: Ceiling support extrusions provide perimeter support for drop ceilings. However, they do not include drop-in ceiling tiles, t-bars, and other ceiling components.

Caution: When you want to specify perimeter ceiling support extrusions with stack walls, you must select the horizontal extrusions on both sides of the wall to specify an Enzo revel. Even if you only want to add ceiling support extrusions to one side of the wall, you must change the horizontal reveal to Enzo for both sides of the wall.
9.Click Properties.
This image shows the Properties icon highlighted red.

12.If you want to specify a Ceiling Antler extrusion for one side of your wall, return to the Style Manager, and click the extrusion on that side. If you want to specify Ceiling Antlers on both sides of your wall, continue to step 13
For example, in this image, only one the horizontal extrusion for Side A is selected, so only that side of the wall would receive a Ceiling Antler extrusion:
13.Under Type of Extrusion menu, choose the Ceiling Support Partial Antler Extrusion.

b.Under Extrusion Start - Offset Value, type a new offset.
In this image, the reference point is Top Of Ceiling. To move the Ceiling Support Antler up, we would reduce the value in the Extrusion Start - Offset Value field (for example, 24.0").
Tip: When using Top of the Ceiling as the Offset Reference Point, 7.83" (198.8mm) is the minimum Extrusion Start - Offset Value that you can enter. If you use a value that is lower than 7.83", Notification 130 appears.
