  2. 100% agree with this^^^^ No reason the flooring all needs to run the same direction.

  4. That box is asking what layer to add the hatching on. To make it appear again.... It's under preferences. On the left click "Reset Options" then "Reset Message Boxes" - Reset suppressing of message boxes. Shane
  5. When I clicked on the Auto Detail button - see image - I had a DBX asking for one things or another. How do I reset this so I get this DBX to popup again? I want to check the component fill options. Thank you
  6. This thread may help with stair issue.
  7. As a startign point, I found a door that was very close. The frame and bead were ok, but it had a raised panel. So I used the delete surface tool to reomve the raised panel and then created a symbol and placed it in plan view. I then added a 3d solid for the center panel and a molding for the detail between the bead and panel. I then select those 3 part and create a new symbol assigned to the cabinet door/drawer category. I set the stretch planes to be centered on the width and height of the panel, and add to my library. I didn't search the library very long, but it still would have been faster to have created the door from scratch. A molding polyline can be used for the outer frame and then duplicated and re-sized for the bead and detail.
  8. I see! Sorry i misunderstood the problem.
  9. I've made other cabinet door profiles with 3D Solids but those were with 90 degree edges, nothing beaded. Maybe I should have tried with countertop tools instead? Ahh this is great, thank you!!! Can I ask how you did the beaded part?
  10. Check and see if this works better. You can cut and paste the elements over to your original plan if you like. Here I just, Transferred the Pinemont asphalt drive from modifications outlined above. Turned the existing concrete into its own slab. Used a 20 driveway centered on the angled road you had drawn. Ran this back at 20' wide parallel with the tank. Both these driveways have a 10' radius on either end. Created a smaller perimeter drive for the new slab connecting to the existing concrete and the radius drive to Creekmonte. Extended the smaller drive to match up with the asphalt drive coming from Pinemont. If I had the survey (it says that file is still sitting on your computer in a folder, not in the plan itself.) I would have added its language for you. Let me know if this helps. 670311519_SitePlan2-3.plan
  11. the problem is the space between the letters and the underline beneath those letters (touching in my case), not that underlining can be set to underline a space in between words CA gives me this: I want something more like:
  12. It seems that you can do a macro to get a line length, then use a global variable to use that in a text somewhere else. There doesn't seem to be a way to get dimension data from the actual dimension itself
  13. I really don't understand the problem. CA can do text both ways, at least if you use richtext. For the library user, I think he should do an early withdrawal on his request.
  14. I found out a 20 ft fire lane is possible for city of Houston.

  16. The 24 ft fire Lane drive has got to be at an angle to meet the existing cut in the median! to save money. Should I just move the survey to my drawing and draw new concrete driveway? I need to put all the notes for description to meet city of Houston permitting.

  18. Less convenient than your suggestion BUT a quicker work around is to use a CAD line. Gives you complete control of the line and it can be blocked to the text. Can be on it's own layer also. Just remember to turn off fill pr bring the line to the front:
  19. Is there any way to have the reference view in 3d to show up in the walkthrough path? I am trying to show the new framing over the existing conditions in different stages as the camera orbits the property.

  21. It's almost certainly faster to make one than to find one. Try this one out. cab door.calibz
  22. Not sure about commercial though. I don't do commercial.
  23. Local code in Houston is 21"

  25. Yep, that looks much better, I'd like the ability to specify the underline offset, and the line weight. https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/forum/8-suggestions/ Good luck!
  26. Yes it's close, closer than I'd like, but not touching. CA PDF driver output matches the screen:
  27. #3 - The line removed going across property from Drive to past Creekmont Street? The only line I'm seeing is across Pinemont Road. I went to the end of it and dragged back the errant point. I then reconnected it and simplified the polygon points. #2 - Which lines are the survey lines? If it is the 2 arcs, they both travel past 90 degrees and aren't the same distance from the Piedmont. A straight line connection would cross both of them, so I moved it outward, 2" from 90 degrees at the lower, which is 1' 5-1/16" from the upper 90. I assumed you wanted the existing 18' asphalt drive to meet the upper radius point. And the bottom existing 18' asphalt drive line is 1-1/4" below the lower arc, so I just connected it. Is this what you are looking for? Someone moved your terrain to boundary property line layer. Chief didn't like that. I recreated another polygon to represent the P/L's and added 2' high fencing to remind me where those lines are in 3D view. I then switched the terrain to terrain layer and expanded it to encompass both roads at either end. This is what Piedmont looks like now. I can clean up the curb if you tell me I can cut back those radius lines to meet your road at 90 degrees. (the purple lines in first #2 image above.) #1 - 24' line sloped to side to meet new concrete drive which I again assume is the red radius lines below? and the that road you have running at an angle can be deleted? If so, I added a break to your new drive polygon at 90' gas left upper slab corner. I moved the other end of that line to the gas right upper slab corner. I created a parallel line across the way 24' added a measurement to show it is 24' wide. And promised myself not to ask why the new gas slab is 19' 2-1/4" wide The arcs at the street are 25'8" apart if you run parallel from the bottom one up. I then followed the same steps as #2 above to create this. Then created a road polygon and added some slabs (and 9' tall slabs w/ footings to represent the sheds.) Problem is I don't know if this is what you wanted. I would think you'd want the two driveways connected as one continuous length and I'd color the roads darker than the asphalt drives, then clean up the intersections. Let me know your thoughts..
