DRAWZILLA

If you have trusses and want stick framing, just install your trusses and frame it, the places you don't have trusses will fill in with stick framing automatically but beware if you have any tie-ins over trusses, you will not get any framing for the tie-in so you have to do that manually. been trying to get Chief to fix that forever. do it last thing when you don't need to auto frame anymore or you will lose your hard work

In the layout, go to tools, layout, reference files, and browse to the plan you want associated with the layout

Thanks , I believe you-Chop.

I see he didn't post the plan, Chop, How did you see the problem??

Some Builders really only care about the price you give them, but some want Quality plans Cheap, take your pick

This is the easy fix http://screencast.com/t/WADmsOo9fT2q

You can always just save them to your lib. also.

You need to delete the drywall under the rafters in the roof DBX to get exposed rafters, also delete soffits.

Foundation walls are just like any wall, you can change them at will, make a room, if you watched any of Scott's videos, you could see he just copies normal walls and pastes them on the foundation level. Even using a mono slab, the footings are changeable.

You mean the drug tip with reminders.

I have used it on interior walls where the drywall extends down over a conc. wall, you just have to be aware where the main layer is and flip the wall if you have to. It only extends down on the main layer. Never done "ICF" walls, try it and see

California has prices all over the place, even within the state. I would start out low to get work ,then after they can't do without you, pump it up.

Oh Oh, my secret is out, at least it didn't show my dealer. How the He** do you turn that off when doing video's. I tell you though, if I didn't have those reminders, I would be dead.

Right now you can just use an air space, 3/8", for horiz. furring until Chief adds this kind of feature, or you can create a double stud layer wall using a 3/8" stud on top of the main stud wall for vert. furring.

Larry here is a video showing the brick ledge depth tool for you. Remember don't paint walls still applies for me. http://screencast.com/t/rMaF6SVan

Larry, you put the stucco layer on the main layer, it should be put on the exterior layers.

Spell check error--no user error, maybe. Yes we will come see you guys, When????, I don't know, we used to be gone every weekend but now we are just slowing down with age. As always, thanks for the offer though, love San Diego. Penny is afraid her plants will die if she leaves the premises , she is growing our food. Some times I have to sneak around just to get some fast food, don't tell. Oh, and I learned the floor thing from you, thanks.

I always have a second or 3rd floor in in every model I do, weather there is one or not. My templates are set up that way.

Here it is fixed, had to play around with it, I guess the main thing I did was to add a 2nd floor (open below). just use invisible walls not a glass wall. Check it out and see if that works for you. I noticed the roofs reverted back to hips but you can fix that easily Test corner foyer fixed.plan

here is a workaround if you need it. http://screencast.com/t/qNvV6ipB

Post the plan and see if we have the same problem

A lot of cities and states work under older codes and just don't care about seismic, still. A lot of permits are given with just an architectural set of plans.

Yes, select all your roof planes and de-select automatic birdsmouth from the roof DBX, then put in whatever number you want. You might want to also change your roof defaults. I would also re-build the roof planes.

Look here , you can also turn off vector views on the same page

at a quick first look , it seems the birdsmouth depth is different for different roof planes, check them
