So open plan.. go to 3D view.. change to glass view then add 2nd model

Well the first plan you open up can be in standard or glass option.. same with 2nd plan you add .. only I found if you opened first plan in standard view it had to stay that way. does this make sense?

Looks good.. seems like one has to decide which model is glass depending on what looks better.. my addition engulfed existing house so I had to make new glass and old standard.. with yours the addition is added on.

Let’s see what you got...

I agree.. I wish ca had the line drawing option.. and be able to add shadows like sketchup.. I started long ago with pencil and vellum.. I have come a longgggggg way.. I remember doing perspectives with vanishing points etc.. anyways I love the crossed lines on this view.. just like the old days

What I did was make current 3D design show in glass house first and turn up transparency and then add as built in standard view. if you start with standard view I couldn’t change it to glass house once I loaded as built model.

Hi Perry, i am downloading newest driver, 418.91...looks like i am out of date..hope it wont screw up things.

I loose my crosshairs and cursor quite often working on x11...anyone else seeing this? I have to quit ca and reopen to get them back.

I do a lot of additions/remodel designs, i think the new reference model will be good to show clients.

I was trying to make a shallow cove ceiling only 3/4” high, placed rope light inside and it really only worked with pbr.. tried spot and various Lumen settings, also tried spacing and slightly sloping spot lights and nothing worked but pbr.. again makes no no sense for ca to make this a hex.. should just be a rectangle to simulate LED tape lighting

Thanks Graham....that works but doesnt work in pbr...i had to turn it up to 350 luminens to get work but way too bright in pbr..so what then?

Hi All, excited for x11, i cant get rope lighting to work in standard view but works in pbr view? , here is the plan. Also don't you think its weird that ca made it a rope light and not a LED strip light? I don't know anyone that uses a rope light as a builder or cabinet company...i know you can adjust thickness but it still appears as a hex...i think ca needs to get into the new millennium with this... rope.zip

Perry, in Alberta, Canada it is not too difficult to get a permit. All that was recently added was a new energy code that requires that all assemblies have the energy rating listed. I have heard though like others mention that BC and Vancouver all have additional requirements over the standard code and can be quite a lot of work, but then this should weed out the part timers or incompetent.

Thanks Dermot, i thought that remember my choice only worked in the current session, good to know. Worked now. Cheers.

Hi all, i thought i saw someone say you can just use library to insert a cabinet door, but it wont insert unless there is a cabinet, what am i missing?

Anyone else getting error? i can’t get any 360’s to work .. when I move phone the image doesn’t move?

Thanks Michael, usually something small...worked now... Cheers.

I see yours working...i looked at both files and cant see a difference but mine wont cut wall surface? Driving me crazy now. base plan.plan

Michael, i am not sure how to make it work using your method, i increased ro by 7" and unchecked recessed to wall and this is what happens...perhaps i am doing something wrong?

Thanks for your time Michael... i finally figured it out using your method. Cheers. I had to recess to main layer and use a s molding for case..here is what i did to make it work.

.. What thickness is the splash then? Most quartz and stone only comes in 2cm or 3cm

I posted earlier some drywall reveals.. secret would be put install these at a consistent height everywhere and then drywall just sits on top and there is a mud lip to finish it off. then when ready flooring would be installed right up to plastic reveal and base installed last. we do design/build Reno’s and additions so I design, budget, project manage and we do the cabinets as well so full control.

I can imagine.. I really like this look.. I have a modern home addition Reno to do and was wanting to show client what it could look like.

I see that, but if you want a 1/2” or so reveal all the way up door case isn’t the wmr only going to cut 1/16”?

If your material region is only 1/16” how will it be the same depth as the recess above base?
