DRAWZILLA

I'm always getting the Schedule's expanding for no reason. This has always been a pain for me as I like to keep them live. Yes I know I can put them in a cad detail but this shouldn't happen at all.

Yesterday I updated my catalogs, it said everything updated ok, only to see that my materials section in the core library was gone. So I did it again and "Same thing". I had to put it back manually, not sure what is going on.

i believe the curved wall tool will only allow 180 degrees, but a quick copy and mirror and you will be converting a Silo into a home in no time

You can go beyond 180deg, you just need 2  walls to have a full circle.

 Andy, Pretty funny. I guess your pretty GD F*****.

I'm not Getting any of that.

Try updating your video card drivers or your mouse drivers but I'm not seeing that. I don't think it's a Chief thing

Wow, Haven't seen that one, I would send it in to TS

Perry, lol, love your sense of humor.

 

Im trying to down load the update and its saying i have the lastest.

 

When i look at my version i have, 16.1.1.9x64, lol

Never seen that before, try T.S. I guess you could re-download it and install just in case you got a corrupt one.

I sent them the video and they seemed to understand after that. They didn't change the page at first.

Ok, T.S. acknowledged it not working correctly and they are sending it to the developers for review.

It's, tools/ layout/ referenced plan files
 

Here is the video that shows it really doesn't work.

Yes Joe, its the changing of the pages that's the problem. Ok now I will do the video.

I didn't even have to create anything it does it for every layout.

I'm still learning every day

I just checked it again, and now its working, not sure why it didn't before, now I can't do a video.

I can do a video for them, but I would like to know why an" it's ok" answer when we all have some problems with it, Seemed simple to me.

Sorry, I didn't notice you were using ver 10, I can't help, I don't even have it on my computer anymore.

You can also use the new floor and wall material tool to get what you want.

What second floor? It's a single level. That's my problem!

The one your going to add to the plan to make it easier to do, I usually always have a 2nd floor even if there isn't one in the plan, so you easily can add walls if needed with out calling them attic walls, then you can show those windows in plan view with their labels. I learned this from Scott a long time ago. I just like to do it manually

Here is the response from T.S., I just got.

Hello Perry,

Thank you for contacting Technical Support, my testing of the Aerial View pane, docked in any position, updates both Plan and Layout views the same. Are you able to reproduce this behavior on a new plan/layout?

These are all new plans, Not sure what this means.

I also wish we could make one camera callout and copy the rest, why do we have to create each one separately. I keep about 20 cameras in my template plan

just for that reason.

Thanks Glen, I posted it to T.S. yesterday and haven't heard anything yet

I'm also curious about some of the east coasters.

To remove the "Phantom" slab just make the room have no floor and add your own. I will sometimes use a Court room.

I've done these and I would just place a full height wall on the 2nd floor and pull up the bottom in section / elevation view and put a roof beam under it.

Is you room called Deck or Porch.  If it's a deck it should frame for you if you have auto deck framing checked. You could post the plan and someone here
or I could look at it for you.
