  1. Give the Porch room a larger ceiling height. Are you doing auto roofs? Do the above and if you are using auto roofs you may get crickets or other screwy things where the roofs meet. If you get that far, post back here for the solution to that problem.
  2. Go to your Digital Locker and it will tell what versions are Perpetual or Expired. It will also tell you when, and if, your SSA licence has expired.
  3. You can use a straight ramp and curve it using the Change Line/Arc tool on the edit toolbar. Open the dbx and have a look at all the settings. I left the railings so that you can see the slope better.
  4. It is because you are trying to dimension to non-parallel (or off angle) lines. ie the house is drawn orthogonal and the plot lines are not orthogonal.
  5. Have you had a play with the Vertical Stacking setting in the window dbx. On the Options panel.
  6. Yes, I have one. It is from a few years back, so it may be out of date. It is too big to post here. Give me your email address and I may be able to do it as an attachment. This is just a small selection:
  7. Just a heads up... I am assuming that you used the Rotate Plan View tool for the rotation. If so, make sure that you understand the following as things may start happening that you didn't expect:
  8. Start by going to Cad>Cad Detail Management>New. You can then use the cad tools to draw your details. Note that you would normally draw the cad details full size and then scale them when sending to layout.
  9. Do you want to raise the house in relation to the terrain or drop the terrain in relation to the house?
  10. Have you had a play with the Polyline Distribution Path tool?
  11. I have always done that by creating a room with invisible walls in the main room. The vertical wall that defines the invisible room only needs to encroach on the large room as far as it meets the valleys on either side. You shouldn't need to use a Roof Baseline Polyline. rooftestGLENN.plan
  12. Have a look in help for Framing Reference Markers. The setting is in Wall Specification>Structure>Stud Layout
  13. Depending on what effect you want, you may be able to get it by changing some of the parameters on a Grass Region which is 3D grass which follows the terrain.
  14. I think that you can only do limited editing to the windows in a Bay Window. I don't think you can add a window and mull them. To access a window for editing, select the bay by the wall that contains the window you want to edit. Hit Tab and the window will become selected for editing.
