Fyi, you can still keep paying your ssa fee instead of going to the higher subscription fee. Just don't let it lapse or you lose it. You will also get the latest version.

Download the Irvine cover sheet, fill it out, that's what they like to use, or it will be a correction. Other than that, they are pretty standard.  If you do some California jobs, you shouldn't have any problems. Engineering is a must t though. I've done hundreds of projects there over the years. Don't forget everything here is 2025 California codes, and the wonderful Cal -green crap.

For me, if a project is in the preliminary stage, I always bring forward to the next version.

If you want it to look like the picture, you will need 4 windows mulled together with zero separation

Call support or sales but I have never heard of anything like that.

Yes we should be able to turn off any selected edge. I wanted this 20 years ago.

Maby try the framing defaults dbx section.

do you have a 2nd floor over that room, if so then you need to not recess it into the ceiling.

In the porch wall dbx, you can make the roof pitch different then the house on an individual wall basis and still use auto roofs

turn off project management it's still there. other than that you have to export it

today mine stopped working also. rolled back

new driver is working good for me.

that's what the blending tool does, it doesn't change the texture, just the color

in the material edit  dbx., just use the blend with checkbox and choose any color 

You need to turn on auto foundation rebuild to change it or delete your foundation and do it manually. Auto is much faster.

try the new tile builder in X17

X16 doesn't accept those files only X17 does

Well that's the thing, the media and computer ARE the same. My camera view, when sending to layout as an image, has an entirely different hue. The monitor remains the same and it's in the same program, so you would think the image should look the same. But it doesn't. 

printed always looks different than monitor viewing.

I believe all colors are based on what media you view or print it on. They will always look different biased on a lot of things, paper, monitor, some are better than others for viewing. higher the resolution the better, but at a cost of a very large file size.

You could also remove the floor and add a ramp.

Thanks DB and Yes will probably use X17 in legacy mode when I complete a couple jobs started in Project management mode and decide to use it full time and the 'new features' in X17 are in no way a compelling reason for me to use X17. My business requires very little Ray Tracing use overall as the standard views serve my purposes in most cases (and the YouTube Videos I produce for my clients) and the very occasional need that I have for a Ray Trace the CPU Ray Trace, which doesn't take hours for an image, works just fine for my business.

 

I also have an older system and monitors that may or may not be compatible with a new graphics card and I can't justify the cost and complexity for something I really don't need.

Larry, I don't use project management and x17 is good for me, it does have other good stuff too. Just remember if you don't pay your SSA  legacy ,you will have to pay full price from now on.

yes, its been that way forever, we need separate size input for ledgers and ridges and valleys.

try changing the soffit material to opening -no material and make the sub fascia to whatever size you want the exposed rafters to show.

It's just too bad you can't fog out the front and show the back. I don't use it because of that.
