  1. Here are both plans. I backed up my X-12 plan to make sure I can still use it in X-12 then I opened the plan in X-13.    Note.... I just loaded X-13 and it auto merged. Other than that I have made no settings changes.   This is the first time using this version.  The other thing I noticed. I tried to do a Raytrace of the same camera view in X-13 and it was extremely grainy and was nowhere near as fast as X-13. 

     

    Ive seen others state they have the same issues with camera views and raytrace / PB.  Are there setting changes that must be done to get what I can get in X12 or has X13 taken a step back?

  2. I have SSA but I usually wait a few more months before upgrading to a new version to give more time from them to work out the bugs.  Its just been so busy I have not had the time it takes to do the whole time consuming merge.

  3. A few questions when inserting a shower niche into a shower glass pony wall.  First, has not happened in the before but when I insert the niche it shows sitting on the floor like a door. ( know the niche is technically a door) However when I pull it up to the height I need it off the floor there now appears to be framing across the bottom of the niche. See attached  I am using a niche I've used for years

     

    Second... This has always happened and nothing new. When inserting a niche into the shower glass pony wall that has a wall cap, it deletes the section of wall cap above the niche.  Ive always just deleted the entire wall cap and used a PS.  Does anyone have a better way?Niche.plan

  4. Im doing a large downstairs project with a lot of new cabinets. The area we will be working in currently has 3/8-1/2" tile floors. We will be extending the nail down hardwood flooring from the other parts of the house into these areas thus raising the finished floor height.  This is slab on grade so there will be 3/4" plywood placed on the slab first the 3/4" nail down hardwood flooring bring the finished floor up to 1-1/2" thick.  With tile flooring we normally set cabinets on the slab and then tile up to them. Obviously don't want to do this with thick HW floors. I would want to have the bottom of the cabinet set at 1/4" below the top of the finished wood floor.  What do others do...  Change the finished floor height down to 1.25" and set all cabinets to finished floor height or leave the finished floor height at the 1.5" and then set the cabinets 1.25" off the slab (floor).  Both will work but curious what others do.  Thanks

  5. Does anyone know where in the library, has the symbols or know the best way to show a wall cabinet with an appliance garage with doors?  I've got a roll up style in my place but the client would prefer doors . Im looking for a tilt up then push in style door or a pocket door to show in the plan.  See the attached pics.   This is a Q&A and a symbol question but thought I would put it in this forum.
