    MOVE THE DORMER WALLS TO THE ATTIC FLOOR ABOVE, THEY WILL LOOK THE SAME IN CAMERA VIEWS AND BE GONE FROM THE LOWER FLOOR.

    Larry, one thing is that there is an exterior and interior side of an interior wall. it controls things like exterior and interior side of doors and casing, etc. Also which side dimension's are connecting too, depending on how you set it up. Nice video.

    well ,you could use the export Chief 3d viewer, it almost the same as a walk through but the client can move around wherever they want to view. Chief has the file on their servers.

    here is a way to do tage within Chief, did this a long time ago.

    turn on automatic framing in deck defaults

    I like saved plan views, didn't at first but learned as I went along during early phase testing. The only problem I have is I'm changing the view accidently , then go to the layout and find the 2nd floor showing on the 1st floor plan. I wish there was a pop up stating that I changed the plan view so I could answer no I don't want to change the plan view on the layout. Other than that it's great for me.

    That's how I do all my patio covers, very fast for standard patio covers.

    I have no idea, except that I have always not used the XOR ever for anything
  9. DRAWZILLA
    I have never used the XOR setting for that

    You can always Pre send Your elevation to a Layout template And it will always stay that way

    It depends greatly on where you are and your skill level.

    Are the auto roof framing on?
  16. DRAWZILLA
    I don't have 4k, but just make sure your video card can handle it, I know people here have them without any problems though.
  17. DRAWZILLA
    You can always just turn off all framing in that camera view for now.

    Learn something new everyday. I have never been asked for a UL listed wall, just fire-rated.
  19. DRAWZILLA
    Never seen a "UL" listing for an as built in the field wall, these listing are usually for manufactured items and shipped to the field, like a metal fireplace. Fire rating ,yes. Some pre-manufactured walls might have one though

    For me if trusses are required I just set up all ceiling and roof framing to 2x4 mostly, I then add a note to the sections that, the trusses are designed by others and will add the new truss plan, by the manufacturer to the plans I draw

    Around here ---no permit means you could lose your license if caught.
  22. DRAWZILLA
    No permits--what's that? never heard of that animal.
  23. DRAWZILLA
    . A lot of times we actually have to cut them also. When doing remodeling plans we have to show the existing trusses and how they tie into the conventional framing. Do very many of those and have for 40+ years.

    Some cities have wanted me to enlarge that cad block, in which it's very easy to do. Just re-do the cad block, the text is just too small, save it to your lib. for future use.

    every one of my builder clients do not have any flooring under the cabinets, they might fill in under the DW or range but never under the cabinets. They are in the business to make money though. and build as less expensive as possible. If it's not on the plans , it won't happen.
