@builtright3 why would any jurisdiction allow you to build over an easement? I don't see the issue at all! Unless someone decides to build without permits. The moment you submit your plans to any jurisdiction, it undergoes the review process by all pertinent departments, if you are showing your structure over an easement, you will get a correction stating that there's an easement there! I kept from posting because the op was of no value. Property research should be part of all projects and part of your contract, so no mistakes are made. Either you do the legwork or have a "gopher" to run your errands. If the jurisdiction has GIS they likely also have a Surveyor's GIS which is different and you can search their maps there. If the jurisdiction has GIS you can easily find the APN, with it you can find where to download the parcel map, with that you can read it and find the book and page of the survey map, with that you find the surveyor's GIS and go through all the maps if more than one is available and read the maps to see if an easement exists! If all that fails and you still want to double check, send the "gopher" to the county recorder's office and request the record of survey for your area as well as any recorded easements. If you have been in this business long enough you may also want to ask if any easements have been "quit deed" or are discontinued. Hope this helps.

If you are like me that I'm always keeping an eye on disk space "This PC" on Windows and noticing how the space goes up and down depending on usage as well as how it had suddenly gone up after using the Project Management option. It has to do with how this feature saves backups of ALL YOUR PROJECTS, ASSETS, USER CATALOGS, ETC. each time it does a backup. The backups are there as a failsafe and can easily be moved to an external drive, or a cloud service if you deemed necessary to move them out to keep your disk space from getting filled up. You can find the backup folder location by going to Preferences>General>Folders>All program paths>Show. Hope this helps!

@Jake1976 Agreed and please if you'd like to add to my wagon regarding this issue, it seems we have a better shot to being heard if more people support suggestions. Please and thank you,

Hello @mthd97 I appreciate your response and will consider it; the purpose of the request is to learn what others are doing in an effort to improve productivity or to completely discontinue any effort to show framing in some cases and/or to escalate the issue and keep sending it to CA so they can hopefully fix it. Looking to push another suggestion of mine regarding a "floating" floor container which I have started. The landing seems to be a good candidate.

Looking for TIPS on framing landings as it is currently not an option. Is anyone framing landings at all? If a landing occurs next to a loft or at any other location where it is adjacent to a floor system/framing. Please and thank you,

Anyone using the Transform Replicate tool to align? Thank you @robdyck

Looking for TIPS on how to align polylines or objects to other objects or angles. Not single objects like "make parallel" but the entire polyline whether it is closed or not. Please and thank you,

@MN_JohnH This is a good topic for a suggestion. You may also reference the TJ-4000 booklet, Roof Framing for what is and is not allowed by the manufacturer.

And as for my own ulterior motives: The beauty of tables...

ArchiCAD with Rhino or/and Grasshopper connected can draw just about anything your imagination desires. Proficiency as the end user that’s a must. Cheers!

It did what it was designed to do. Go to the KB and type Rotate read up on it. You will need to use a different tool.

Use two roof planes, overlap them as needed over your support, same spacing but, use a framing reference and place it so that it overlaps the framing as needed right to left, you may need to play with it a bit. You will also need to play with the fascia buttons as to build or not or a combination thereof. See my post about roof planes needing flexibility.
