DRAWZILLA

Thanks Dan

The easiest thing would be to have a board and batt texture. There are some fake ones around that look ok, but not real.

Thanks for the heads -up. It is also in the California code. I don't think anyone is enforcing it here yet. I think the reason is that an I-joists will burn through quicker than a normal 2x floor joists. They will have to make the I-joists plywood thicker to qualify. Now, it's 2 x floor joists for me unless it's going to be sprinkled.

That video was from X2, it different now.

Cant open for some reason

You could try to break the exterior walls at the connection. Post the plan for an exact answer.

you could have just drag the files to your desktop instead of unzipping.

Roof will not update in that situation unless you have auto roof turned on. Sometimes you have to use the " transform -replicate" tool to do it manually in the "z" direction.

Oh, there has been noise.

Mark, I wonder how many people get it?

Thanks Joe, I guess the problem was that I was dragging them around instead of using the DBX to do it.

The problem is the vents still show on the floor plan. That was my concern

Ok I place it on the foundation level but when I try to move it up to the joists bays, they seem to look odd like Scotts post expanding the sides. I am not sure what I'm doing wrong. I really want them to show on the foundation level

all on "C" for me also.

Are you printing in grayscale

I use the paid version of Screencast (100 bucks a year) and never even come close to reaching the limit on the bandwidth.

It's probably coming to a town near you soon.

If I use red it's on the dark side, most of my colors are on the dark side. if I need a light fill type, I just use gray color.

I guess the answer is to use a room fill for that situation for now.

text wrap in everything is an important thing to have. It would solve a lot of problems

Scott, I never use solid room fills. I put my interior and exterior walls on separate layers so I can shut the interiors down when I need to like for a 2nd floor plan or a site plan. You can now default your walls to any layer you want, so now I don't have to select them, it's automatic with the new wall defaults.

It's a symbol so change the size there, I also don't like that it looks like it cuts the foundation wall on the foundation plan view. I guess you could change the cad block of that symbol.

I print everything in Grayscale, sent to my outside print service, my clients (contractors) just don't want to pay for color, ever. I had to adjust my colors for grayscale.

Nice one Scott, I was using your vent symbol until now, automatic S.F. is nice, just change the window sched. name to a "vent Schedule" helps a lot. Maybe we could take a gable vent from the lib and change it somehow

I know it fixed the lag for me but I need my recent files to work correctly.
