if you have Joe's site package, it does it all for you automatically.

I don't know what you are doing but I can do it and do a lot. Not sure what is going on with you. Try posting the plan for an exact answer

Michael, all programs have these quarks once in a while ,so you will never eliminate those, but as in all cases, if I'm not having any problems like that then I suspect user error.

Well, I gave him the option of not closing and re-opening all the time

not quite the same problem

I just opened all the attic walls and unchecked (no locate) and they came back.

You can do all that info with a macro also

Egress is 44"from the floor but no higher. Looks like you are ok. There are other requirements also ,like width and height. Check the code in your area

remember that if you put your windows at 8' high , you need to make some ,in the bedrooms, deeper for egress. Kitchen window also. I actually enlarge every window so the bottoms are where a normal 80" high window would be.

you have to set up your defaults and tell chief what to connect to. Look at the defaults for that tool.

first turn off auto roof framing, then in a framing plan (for me)turn on all roof framing items, turn off all Ceiling framing select the fascia, and delete. I usually do a lot of other framing mods at that time, as it is done and I have no more changes from the client, but sometimes I do have to re-frame and do it again, PIA if you ask me. BTW-look to the left bottom corner to see you have actually selected the fascia.

This should be an easy one for chief because you can already do this for railings on landings, gutters roof caps.

just make your soffits smaller or don't use one, Ceilings at 9' windows at 8' or do it your way. no problem. interior doors at 6'8" is ok if that's the look your after, or budget dictates a less expensive is needed. I would use 8' doors throughout, if it was my call.

When you are done framing you can remove any fascia manually, but don't try to re-frame the roof plane, or it will come back. This is something I have been asking for a lot of years now. we really need to be able to uncheck fascia on any given roof plane segment not just the whole thing. also sometimes the rafters will show below the ceiling when the program really needs to cut off the bottom of the rafter level with the ceiling, no matter what size the rafter is. Long time bug.

the conc. exterior wall lines, you would only see them in section view anyway.

BTW uncheck invisible for that 1/2 wall, the splash will fill in, if that's what you want

here is your plan, you had absolute instead of floor as the base. just add some splash to your base cabs 1084 One Story 42 counter top.plan

To get rid of the wall lines ,for section view, just use the auto detail tool, and it will cover up those lines with a fill. You may have to drag the bottom fill to The top.

I can't find any builders in my area doing that. they all go with 8' doors and 8' at windows.

railing walls of that type should be made from walls as Glen says.

Make an opening for the whole opening and throw a 1/2 wall with no room def. and slide it in place. You may need to add the base manually though.

Watercolor seems to me, to print the best if you are printing them out.

with point to point, you have to move the marker.

I like 8' high on the windows so you can use larger windows. Doors to match.

It would have been nice to know if he wanted anything else, I thought it was narrowed down to 2. The 1070 is the way to go unless you want better --1080
