That is what I do. Every main annoset and layerset has a working version (that I can temporarily add construction lines, etc.) and a final version (that stays the same and goes to layout). That way you do not leave the wrong layers on or off by mistake in layout. Regarding Saved Plan Views: If you go to a layout plan and open a view, that will give you that view with the correct floor, camera, zoom, reference floor, annosets, layersets, etc., the same as a Saved Plan View. That helped me understand what a Saved Plan View is.

Howdy Bob, I suggest that you learn the basics of manual roof planes. It is not hard to learn the basics in under an hour with a qualified instructor. Regards, Charles

for hire Pole barn garage plan design request.
CharlesVolz replied to PurdueFan's topic in Seeking Services
I see more folks changing the exterior materials wall by wall. Also, you avoid pouring a stone/brick lug where you have a full wall of siding and when you do pour it you are getting the cost spread over ±twice the stone/brick surface area.- 7 replies

BTW, the drawing does not seem to meet the IRC code of 10" min tread depth at walkline, 3/8" tread depth variation and 6" min tread depth on inside edge. R311.7.5.2.1 Winder treads. Winder treads shall have a tread depth of not less than 10 inches (254 mm) measured between the vertical planes of the foremost projection of adjacent treads at the intersections with the walkline. Winder treads shall have a tread depth of not less than 6 inches (152 mm) at any point within the clear width of the stair. Within any flight of stairs, the largest winder tread depth at the walkline shall not exceed the smallest winder tread by more than 3/8 inch (9.5 mm). Consistently shaped winders at the walkline shall be allowed within the same flight of stairs as rectangular treads and shall not be required to be within 3/8 inch (9.5 mm) of the rectangular tread depth.

Is there any way or trick to create a electrical light fixture with a point light where the point light location is outside of the stretch planes and will move with the light fixture as it is resized? Think of a pendant light where the only stretch planes are in the stem so the light shade can be raised and lowered.

I leave the sheathing as 7/16" and make the housewrap 1/16". This better reflects true life and makes most wall thicknesses "even" numbers.
