DRAWZILLA

Do you draw the entire project in Chief or do you finish with another program?

For line weights use elevation anno-sets to get the exact line weights you want.

I'm just saying to leave a blank space where the rafters would be and let a detail handle it. You could even set your framing at 48" using a !/2" wide joists if you use a 48" panel.

What you can do is, just create the thickness you want by adjusting the framing thickness you need and set the framing at 50' or whatever you have. Turn off auto roof framing. Then handle the details with a detail.

I don't know how Chief would fix everything you want. but you can hope.

Thank you, for understanding, Randy, have a good weekend on me.

I understand what Scott is asking, a simple post the plan would save everyone time, especially the OP. Scott is one of the greatest and most knowledgeable guys here and has helped everyone at one time or another, including myself. He has done over a thousand videos, helping people and users. OP, you shouldn't be rude to him, He is just trying to help you. I't will be your loss.

Hey, I never get compensated. Don't tell my wife, she actually think I make money.

You can draw your box first then add text using the "Edit rich text in place tool".

Move the site, always. IMO

I also see this all the time.

I haven't had time to do it recently, but we have shaped the layout box in the past into a circle, we even did a workshop about it.

Scott, you didn't say you paint, you said you color them, with what tool. You are aware of the pitfalls aren't you. How about the exterior?

Just send the view to the layout then you can adjust the layout box to a circle and change the scale.

Never paint walls, create a new wall definition.

saw a new report just last week about it.

San Andreas is really only capable of a 7.5 or 8, at least that's what they say. Cities around here has up the wind loads within the last 5 years or so.

Wind usually governs here too.

I opened it using acrabat

I opened it also using acrobat HINKLE 2 OF 3 TRUSSES.PDF PSS TEST 1 copy.pdf

Its encrypted meaning you have to un-encrypted it to open have them send you a copy with no security built in. It is a pdf with security

Postscript has to do with the text, It's still a "PDF" format. I would think you should be able to open them up also. Could be a Mac thing. Post one and I'll try to open and re-save

There are two ways to increase or decrease line weights Change the line weights, I like it b/c you can see what you get. Or change the advanced line weight options as shown.

Never for me. That would freak me out.

I use a min of 10 and everything in-between up to 200 when needed for lot lines and terrain perimeter . Walls are at 35
