My friend this system is yours, just shoot me an email. Let's go grab a beer?

Official X18 added the capability of adding individual door types, such as sliding doors, barn doors etc.. This change rendered the check box "Only Apply Properties to Doors of Same Type" non-functional. This is a retroactive change, so now all of my style palette tools that effect doors of different types other than the type the palette was created with no longer function. Will report this. Thank you, this creates a lot of work for me, making it so that I have to add every single door type to every single style palette and painstakingly go through all of the settings one by one. This amounts to hours of work to repair

it shows n/a for me, the OOTB one

this is a problem with the macro that you are using. if its your macro, post it here and we can fix it

I think your suggestion should just be allow rich text in room labels which we've been hammering for years. Because you could just write conditions for room type and accomplish the same thing and would be less work than going through every room type to produce a unique label. Also I will mention it again, I am perfectly happy to login to your machine and show you exactly how I have this done using a custom font and how simple it is once you have it setup. Its a helper manual that remaps anything you want to another part of a font family. And I can do this for any font you want in a matter of minutes. So while we are holding your breath for RT in room labels you can have the perfect system without all of this manual work that you are doing with your labels. If you are at the raining in idaho I'd be happy to set this up for you

you didnt need to use import, you can just double click the caproject file and it will open in X18 if you said yes to making x18 associated with caproject files. Its pretty quick, right click your project in x17, hit export. Then find it where you exported and double click it to open in x18

I just handle this with details. I have a detail system that is largely automated. then callouts and big bubbles on a minimal cross section. my details stack up to look like cross sections A lot less work then trying to get the model to behave

for what its worth

yup, hence the quick and dirty, haha..talking to a GC that hasnt produced an accurate framing plan in decades..it takes too long. my details handle that, my framers handle that too, deferred truss submittals..engineers approach one could also build a room instead, vaulted ceiling, doorway, just takes a smidge longer but will actually build the framing more accurately

simple and inexpensive to generate. will even give you a generation tool so that you can build your own. renerabbitt@gmail.com
