  1. That's b/c it probably goes back to the default ceiling height, you need to bo into each new area with the higher ceiling and change it.
  2. Yes please close as this has been discussed a lot and some people just don't know.
  3. Yes use room divider or invisible walls and set the ceiling heights you need. The room divider walls will fill in the difference between heights.
  4. if you upgraded 7 or 8 to windows 10 , new user, that could be the problem.
  5. Check you distance from absolute zero in the plan. That is a cause for problems like that.
  6. That doc does not apply in this case, that is for Architects that have their own rules just for them. We follow the business and profession codes.
  7. Yes this used to happen to me all the time, I did get them to stop doing that. Try putting them in a cad detail ( keeping them separate) instead of on the floor plan where moving something might be the culprit. Then send the cad detail to the layout. you can also put more than one in the cad detail, they also update automatically.
  8. The problem might be finding someone that in the particular state. He can also have an engineer stamp the plans, that actually does the calc's required. He can mark up a set and you make the changes like structural, beam sizes, shear walls if needed. It's legal, I've done it for 40 years.
  9. I disagree, it would look fine as long as the dim size isn't too large.
  10. I agree the roof under should not show or show as another line weight. You can adjust roof plane fill transparency to do that, it's ok but still not right b/c on another part of that roof plane you might want a full line to show.
  11. I don't use the material's list but that's not right.
  12. No way to do that, but you can give a green point. the up arrow, which seems to do nothing as far as I know. btw, how's your daughter doing? hopefully great.
  13. A crash is defined as something that happens to others, then they kill themselves
  14. Agree with Joey, Join tool happens every day for me too.
  15. You know that the dimension tool has a second level so you can have imperial and metric on the same dimension line.
  16. Yippee, but will it trickle down to all cities or will each city make up there own laws restricting some of this.
  17. I just stopped using a stucco dot pattern texture and use the same stucco texture for both new and existing walls, put in a fix request many years ago on this. I just draw a dotted line on the live elevation, that way you will not have to re-draw it all the time.
  18. Under "General cabinets" in the cabinets default page, you can put that number to whatever you want.
  19. I do it all the time, do it like Scott says
  20. You also can't print with a "/" in it. it does work with a"-" in the name. Not a Chief thing, just a general every filename thing.
