Thank you! I see this would also be affected by a pony wall situation.

Are there macros that can pull information from the components panel to include data in a schedule?

Did you use the auto floating dormer (no roof hole) or the auto dormer tool?

I am having the same issue this morning

In X16 when hovering over an opened tab, it just gave the drawing name and title of the view. In X17 it gives the full file path name, with no information about what the view is. With multiple projects opened and different views for each it makes it really difficult to find which tab I am looking for. Is there a setting to change this?

Would a duplicate Roof Plane with minimum structure thickness work? GableExamplePlan.plan?

Did you make sure to select the main layer of the wall type? Each layer has separate material properties, and when dialogue is opened it defaults to the exterior layer.

Make sure your exterior wall type Main Layer has framing CHECKED under the material properties tab. If it is unchecked the siding will not cover the sill plate. You can also specify the extension of the siding layer in this same wall definition dialogue.

Genius! Thank you!

In the referenced plan file dialog screen, just highlight the unwanted original file (Plan "A") and click browse. Select the new plan file (Plan "B") you want linked to that new layout. It will then condense down to just the single plan reference after clicking ok.

Attached are two pictures with dimensions. All pink dimensions have text moved in dimension string. Blue is unmodified Below is the x15 drawing Below is same plan pulled into x16

Any update on this? I see the problem with new plans on dimensions that won't fit on the string (usually less than 2'). I also see the dimensions moved up off the string on plans pulled from previous versions where I manually shifted the dimension text away from center.

I just recently have been noticing this soffit issue. I don't know what is causing it. I haven't had any trouble with it before. Sometimes it will show like the picture on the left, other times it will delete the fascia below the soffit line (pic on right). Sometimes, it is not consistent on each side of a reverse dormer. One roof plane will be fine and the other the soffit sticks through. I don't know if it is the eave cut that is the culprit. I haven't had the issue before though. Plan attached. Soffit Issue.plan
