  1. You are using a wall not a railing.Stairs will make an opening in a rail auto.but not a wall. You will have to manually break the wall and make the stair opening invisible. Hope this helps. Have a great day,Ken
  2. Are the walls specified to align with the correct layer in the wall dbx? Looks like the walls have different layers. Just a thought,Ken

  7. When you define your wall type if you set to dimension to exterior layer, choose OSB.This is the way I do it all the time. Also my deck band builds to the OSB layer as it should. Hope this helps,Ken
  8. DCB , Here are a few shots of a tower job I am just completing. Have a great week end,Ken
  9. I agree with Lew, Raise the tower till the gutter boards are at the same elevation. It appears the where the main house roof intersects the tower you shouldn't have to put in a cricket,just a guess. Only concern would be the low pitch on both roof sections.
  10. You can print to PDF and then print from your own printer.You don't have to send it out ,plus you still have the advantages Lewis Mentioned. I have an HP-500 and started getting error messages after an update a couple years ago and started using PDFs and then sending those to my HP. No errors and great prints from my machine.I wouldn't do it any other way now. Have a great week,Ken
