  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. I disagree, it would look fine as long as the dim size isn't too large.
  4. 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.
  5. I don't use the material's list but that's not right.
  6. 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.
  7. A crash is defined as something that happens to others, then they kill themselves
  8. Agree with Joey, Join tool happens every day for me too.
  9. You know that the dimension tool has a second level so you can have imperial and metric on the same dimension line.
  10. Yippee, but will it trickle down to all cities or will each city make up there own laws restricting some of this.
  11. 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.
  12. Under "General cabinets" in the cabinets default page, you can put that number to whatever you want.
  13. I do it all the time, do it like Scott says
  14. 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.
  15. Be aware though, that if you butt that texture up against a standard stucco texture, it will leave a line in your elevations b/c they are different.
  16. updated my iPad and going good so far, but not running X8 on it.
  17. What I'm trying to say is, he can use a molding profile in the window DBX for the fake planter box, then it's automatic.
  18. Bill, you have the latest version, my mistake.Sorry about that
  19. The lintel is automatic in the window settings looks like the sill (not a real sill) is a mantle from the lib. But not automatic. EDit it can be automatic if you use a molding profile
