I think the "symbol" text may be controlled by the note itself. Open the note, change "Character Height".

Possibly create a 25-1/2", frameless dishwasher cabinet? Dishwasher will slide in, "cabinet" stays in tact and you have control over both labels. Dishwasher "cabinets" (really just 2 sides) are sometimes used for "orphaned", stand-alone dishwashers. Just a thought.

Pretty please, with sugar on top.

That worked for me too. Just had to be re-framed.

Bonus Catalog>CAD Blocks and Details>CAD Details>Sections>Hot Humid Climates>Energy Efficient Wall Section..... might work as a good staring point.

STYLE> Closed Stringer removes the middle stringer

Check Bonus Library>Exterior Attachments>Cupolas & Weathervanes?

Main menu>View>Tool Palette

Yes, now I see what you mean. I'm able to edit the interior wall extension, but not the exterior.

It's perhaps annoying to have to resort to a "manual" fix, but if you select the dimension string, just click "Edit Extensions" and just drag the extensions to whatever location (length) you want.

In the main menu, go to Window>Fill Window. There is also a button for it in the "Zoom" toolbar. Chief's version of "Zoom Extents" in other software.

Is "Suppress Label" checked?

Hi, You might have a default door header that's getting in the way. Going to "Framing" in the Door DBX, uncheck default header and un-click "include header".

With latest version I can still move with DBX. Hmmm.....

Build Roof>Ignore Top Floor.

You could try to copy and paste into the Open Below Room, and in the object DBX change the "Absolute" elevation to 0. The object should remain visible in plan, but not in elevation. You will, however, now have two couches in the same place on floor 1.

Windows® Update maybe. Someone else mentioned trouble following a very recent update.

Same here. Seems to be down. (Sunday maintenance?)

Maybe try again with "Lock Floor Top" checked?

Time and again there are ideas and discoveries shared here that I have yet to see in the help files, and sometimes the help files are not really of very much help. One man's "new discovery" may well be another man's "trivial item".

Didn't mean to confuse anyone with my tongue-in-cheek comment about "imagination".

Anywhere the I.R.C is used, it's pretty standard to do a fully dimensioned floorpan of each level at min. 1/4" scale, four directional (NESW) exterior elevations, with story-pole dimensions, and as many structural "section" elevations (with framing elements (and maybe their labels) turned on as it takes to show the CEO how each section of the building will actually be built. (Rim joists, P.T. sill plates, sill-seal, anchor bolts with embedment dimensions, joist hangers, rafter hurricane ties, rebar in the foundation wall are examples.) That also entails dimensions and descriptive callouts that eliminate guesswork on the part of the CEO as to what he is actually looking at, and re-assure the Inspector that you have a competent knowledge of the code to which you are building. If you don't specify it, the builder could use his own imagination, citing your plans (or lack thereof) and the battle would begin. No CEO wants to deal with that scenario.

Create a new template that displays in portrait orientation?

That section of the wall seems to have been created on the first floor level, and doesn't know that it is supposed to be a foundation wall. You could copy and paste to Level 0 (delete the windows that might go with it) or re-create that section while you are on Level 0, with the regular (non-pony)"stucco" foundation wall. In that case, you will likely have to make the new first floor wall a pony wall in order to get the result you're looking for. No matter what, Chief thinks that's a first floor wall, which is why it doesn't show up in Level 0.

Hi, Have sent an email.
