Thanks I have worked out a solution although slow, I place a new note and copy description of required note from schedule into box and that numbers it as required on any of the elevations

Thanks, are you suggesting this is best done in the layout and not the plan views?

Please can anyone help describe an easy way to apply a note label on a different elevation than the one it was made on, and have it remain linked to the original note Schedule? PS I am now using X15 and need to update my profile

Thanks Glenn and Mick, that did solve my issue. I had tried reset on most options but missed the side windows. so good to have a solution. Cheers Norm

I have tried recently to switch from the drop down menu option to the child tool palette when I design kitchens. I cannot get the tool palette to open, it show active in the view drop down. After I select the cabinet icon or any other tool icon ie wall there is no option to select the required tool? I am sure it is a simple setting but I have reset my preferences to default and still no joy. here are my settings posted. Any assistance will be appreciated.

Thank you, I will add this to my library as it will be handy

Thanks to all. I will persevere with manual entry and have sent a feature be added. Appreciate the confirmation that I’ve not lost my marbles.

Thanks I am trying to find an older tutorial that may show it? I may be very well mistaken but will add this as a request in the next update, it would save me a lot of time with manual framing edits

Hi Michael. There was an option to set the wall blocking to a desired thickness. I cannot find anywhere to change the 38mm default to 45mm

Hi all, is there a way to set my wall bridging thickness as a default to 45mm? since x13 release the option has been removed from the build framing dialog box. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Holy Moly Chopsaw you are a legend, thankyou so much............ Really really appreciated

Thanks Chop saw please see attached as requested

please se my post, issue is weird, thanks Joey

Hi Joey, thanks for responding please see my screen shots, really surprised/confused as to why

I set it in the Build Framing box under the Wall section

Hi I am not sure why after setting my default centers and thickness on my wall framing to 45mm thick and 400 on center, when building my framing studs are 24mm and 256mm on center? has me confused as I have not had this issue previously. Also when watching videos I do not seem to have the option in my framing dialog to derive framing from wall type as shown in Scotts video relating to wall framing in X13. Any help would be appreciated

I am getting more involved in design work and am moving out of ameture status and working to increase my productivity workflow and material calcs, Does any on have a reccomended work flow to follow for creating a personalised plan template? I have a layout template done and am happy with that but would like to generate and save a plan template that best suits New Zealand protocol and include my frequent used cad details. If I create a new virtual plan with all the required defaults etc and save that as a new template would that be adviasable? In the event that I do save that as my default template will that have any effect on my current plans in use? Thanks Norm
