I have not needed to do this before, but, if you create A as floor 2 does that mess with B as floor 1 and those messages that pop up about ceiling over this room bla bla?

Also (in the future), in ALDO or the Layer Editor refine the search for Locked Layers to see what your best guess might be. My white whale is Ceiling Break Lines

Having the lights on does not mean the camera will use them. That DBX I posted is from the camera that you are using. The default number of lights is lower than the 80 I am showing. If it is at the default, the lights in your kitchen may not be used in the render even though they are set to ON.

What is this set to? You might only be using a small number of available interior lights.

Select the object on the arc and then try this:

"I will take the 3D elevations and sections and convert them back to line drawings via the Cad Detail From View tool. " Are you using perspective camera views for your elevations or the Section view/ Elevation camera? By using the term 3d, it is unclear. You can take an elevation view and send that to layout or if you are interested in a world of pain, convert the elevation to a CAD detail and send that. Essentially, the workflow that you are proposing is not recommended. Perhaps one of your issues is that you have curved elements drawn/modeled with not enough arc segments. If you post your plan file with the question, this may be solvable with some troubleshooting.

With the variations of planes for the soffit, I would add a solid and solids for trim details at that soffit. But, I am lazy. There may be a more sexy automatic way to do it but, let's be honest, I am not that sexy.

I just had a conversation with myself about this

Looks good. @Renerabbitt Did you copy repeat rotate (Photoshop) or did this get run through on online seamless texture creation tool? In the attached image I scaled it from the default 20" to 55" to help fade out the checkboarding of part of the pattern at this scale.

California has really changed. Grass is for squares now.

Chief Team, send this guy a Dad Hat.

Looks like a job for CAD Monkey

Leading the way in Biophilic strategies to expand typological and contextual parameters. Also, tru dat.

I use Rich text on a limited basis in Layout pages. The primary benefit is that if I create a table in a text editor (Open Office), which I will use for something like a contact list or data table, then when I paste in the Rich Text, the table is maintained. There is likely a much better way to do this in the current version of CA but I am lazy and slow to change. I need to get more robust with my use of Note schedules and will likely be able to abandon this method soon. The other use case for Rich Text is a line of text like " lowercase and then UPPERCASE BOLD"

Chief has a problem (or at least I do) with railing walls meeting at a corner of the house. A minor offset could fix it.

Import through the Library tool.

WTAF. Your architect failed you. Leaving the structural design up to the client or the lumber yard on a 3 story building borders on criminal. I thought I had enough things to be angry about but this is now going to steal all the bandwidth for the next 10 minutes. Hire a structural engineer. Full stop. (back to gender identity and boxing)

I think that indicates 2 note schedules.

These things need to align, in my case I have renamed Code field to Note and Comment field to Location

I have run into this several times and the offset tool does not work as well as in ACAD. Or, to be more blunt, it is borderline useless for complex shapes. There are some free versions of ACAD emulators where you could try it as an export since it is an easy polyline to export/import. But, if just for this shape it might not be worth the time.

Concentric resize worked on this shape.

Maybe this guy? Rene just did a video on the newest tool in X16 that makes this a whole lot easier to achieve. Scroll the the last page and the latest video he produced.

I think I got it. Soffits have to be active but cheating the eave sub fascia to tiny gets the look.

I would like the siding to continue past the exposed rafters. Is there a setting I am missing? Soffit is off to reflect the as-built condition. File is too large to upload.
