  1. Joe the list was with the download as a separate item
  2. the plan checkers probably want the plans to be inline with the energy calcs.. North, South etc.
  3. no, you need to place the item in the plan, then change the cad block associated with that electric symbol to add existing. then change the label to what you want it to say..Add the changed item to your lib. for future use.
  4. Good luck finding someone with all those quality's.
  5. Around here, I have done over 4000 additions over 45+ years, and at least for 30 of those years I have needed all existing interior and exterior walls to be shown. I deal with about 50 cities so they vary in the amount of detail needed. A lot of the time we need to brace existing walls for earthquake. also we must show existing for all the energy requirements also needed on every job.. Sounds like fun doesn't it?
  6. It's not?? look at this terrain DBX in X11
  7. also make sure your room divider wall is not checked as invisible
  8. yes, your grade setting in the terrain DBX should be a minus number (-4) if that's what you want it to be.
  9. If you call it a balcony, it will give you a floor system just like a room
  10. Chief just doesn't do that, you cannot add a skylight to the window sched, it would be good if you could though.
  11. It might have been a wi-fi thing, I would just shut down and restart and see if its there.
  12. to show rebar, you will have to add rebar manually in a cad detail or section . not automatic
  13. no the beta is gone, just remember if you draw any plans in X12, you want to continue but change your mind and don't upgrade you will not be able to open that plan in X11
  14. if you have manual roof planes and don't want to disturb them ,just copy your plan ,open that and use the auto roof planes, then copy the roof planes just for that area back to the plan.
  15. You might want to try an give the "PBR" a try. much fester
  16. I don't see them, might be a video card driver, try to update the driver
  17. I think you are correct b/c I notice the default automatically checking itself for headers, must have something to do with auto wall framing on. The window labels will always stick to new or existing even with auto wall framing on. looks like a bug to me or turn auto wall framing off, but I don't like to turn it off, that causes other problems, especially when designing. not sure how to handle this
  18. Thanks Michael, but I've been doing this for 15 years, it didn't work in X11 . . Headers are fairly new but it would be nice if they worked like typ window and door labels.. just saying that if the header labels stayed (e) when I change the default header label to (n) like window and door labels do and always have. I guess what I'm trying to do is have the header labels non-dynamic so only new windows and doors put into the plan will have the (n) assigned to them. I realize I can select and change the label s but with a lot of new and old labels in the plan, it could take some time to do.. I also change the schedule not to include the existing windows and doors...
  19. For windows and doors I change the label itself--- for headers I change the header label under framing but when I do it changes all the existing header labels to new.
  20. I never have the default checked and it still will not work like the window and door labels. I use a macro in the label (nominal size)
  21. one thing I have noticed is that when drawing the as built with an (e) in the header label everything s ok, then when I save the existing and draw the new plan and change the header label to (n) for new windows and doors, all the header labels change in the entire plan. this just isn't how the door and window labels work. Please make the header labels work just like door and window labels do. Submitted.
  22. try cad detail from view in the" cad" drop down
