  1. No, because as we design it we never know what will be required for the model to comply until it's complete. you can set up u-values for doors and windows and have them show in the schedules, but you might have to change all that later. Of course, here in California, we have the toughest energy codes in the nation.
  2. it's already there in beam framing under "with joists" or "under joists", I just wish it were in the edit toolbar instead having to open a DBX and find it.
  3. make sure you also check "mark as edited" at any roof planes you want to be left unchanged.
  4. Looks to me like you have 2 sets of stairs in the same place. Post the plan for an exact answer.
  5. Only if there is plumbing or some reason to go there.
  6. I have brought foreword a few projects without any problems. there is some adjustment to include some new items, but very easy to do.
  7. X15 is a fabulous update. it is working very nice for me. I'm working on about 10 projects with it.
  8. Thanks Joe, the sooner the better as I have about 10 projects in x15 that need fixing.
  9. Did you try some rafter blocking there? Either turn it on in framing or add iit manually. the plate height and walls should stay the same height.
  10. the latest drivers work for me, try it out. 528.24
  11. Sometimes those types of line disappear when you actually print it.
  12. try to turn off the crosshairs, see if that helps you.
  13. Never been asked that either and I'm in Calif. As usual all the cities want to milk you for as much money as they can.
  14. are all the walls aligned with the foundation?
  15. Just lower the garage floor in the room DBX to whatever aligns with your terrain or just above it to align with your driveway.
  16. you don't copy to the layout; you use the send to layout button.
  17. I have been using 528.02 since it was released ,Nahimic service turned off. still good.
  18. I don't think anyone actually knows when any upgrades will come out.
  19. i think you are correct. for ways around this call my guy, he will tell you exactly what you can do. Barry Hanes =1-714-448-4350 he has been doing my title 24 for many years, since it got too complicated for me to spend time on.
  20. i run everything stud to stud and add a note so there is no confusion
