  1. I would suggest posting your .plan file I would also suggest inserting a floor for your basement, as it would make a lot of sense in this scenario.
  2. Saved Plan Views work far better than default(anno) sets. Switching works as it should with the added benefit of saved zoom, saved floor and saved references. Are you referring to a dimension modifier or simply a dimension set with 2x arrow/text sizes? Yes you can have two different plan views with their own dimension defaults, 1 with a saved zoom.
  3. @CAmichael240114 Why wouldn't you setup different plan templates for diff scales etc. to simplify your workflow, instead of so many layer sets?...asking for a friend
  4. Your presence in the forums would certainly prove otherwise Spelling it out, I was illustrating a stepped foundation with default wall heights.. You can very quickly make a stepped foundation in chief without manually dragging walls...in fact you can have dynamic control over stepped location if one were to free their mind of floor level associations. You can have an infinite combination of floor levels with options of "floor under this room" designations, balloon framing, and splitting room heights to create all sorts of platforms
  5. PBR would benefit from an egpu, raytrace would not. Navigation in .plan view could possibly benefit as navigation in .plan uses the GPU.
  6. You could send a plan view to layout and overlay so at least it's automated...I do something similar for my site plans
  7. A bit more clarity and specificity would help us solve this for you, or a .plan file. If I m understanding you correctly, does checking the "Floor under this room" solve your issue?
  8. @Michael_Gia No solution for you though I know the problem. Since framing is not built, nor can it be without being designated as fir framing, the material you have set is in plane with your subfloor and walls. When two materials are in plane with each other they fight to occupy the visual space depending on the camera angle. Somehow you need to force these materials into a different coordinate space to distinguish them. No idea how at first thought.
  9. 3d Elevation column needed to be adjusted as it was oversized
  10. You're doing it right, let me login?
  11. @RobUSMC I'd be willing as well, I have my own standards for file management. HERE'S an intro vid. Also in regards to shared libraries, see HERE
  12. @stevenyhof best practices for posting here is to post a .plan file, we're far more effective as a group when we have access to the .plan
  13. Two schools of thought on manually editing wall heights, I'll put one oversized check mark under the "don't manually adjust your walls" column. It causes more problems than it solves in my experience, especially when you're working through design iterations. Also, you might consider making your walkout a floor 1 and leave your stem walls on floor 0. A lot more control that way IMO
  14. You could also just have an ipad with 10 different hotkey pages containing over 600 Tools .
  15. It shouldn't be doing this unless you changed your default outlet to a GFCI. Check your defaults\electrical\general electrical\ and if that isn't the issue, your rooms are not designated but simply named.
  16. Everyone, if you never @ mention or quote the OP, especially if they are new, they likely won't know to see if anyone has responded.(in my experience.) Welcome to our forums, would you mind sharing an image of your hand drawn vanity so we could better advise you?
  17. Why would you want the sinks to be part of the style palette? Why not block the whole assembly including the wall mount faucets and mirros and add to library. Then let the style palette drive the countertop, moldings, materials, door/drawer/handles? In this way you could have the same vanity assy with different face and material options, similar to what I show here:
  18. I made a video better explaining this process, thanks for the compliment EDIT:audio came out terrible! 200702-20.mp4
  19. This link will expire but it's a video I made for someone going over something very similar https://1drv.ms/v/s!AkMNWqmV-cPLgbg0G39v5eXhyjIAXA?e=GuqhUa
