Mark thanks so much, could you let me know where I was going wrong, I really need to figure out how to use the terrain toold, I always seem to strugle in that area of Chief Much thanks. Jimmy

I have been trying for hours and I just cant figure out this terrain elevation thing. I have watched all kinds of videos but my brain just cant wrap around this. I seems it should be so simple but every things I try just does not work. If someone could just take a look at my plan and attached pict. and help me get through this. I would be much appreciated. I just need the terrain to come up 53" along the sides of the garage and the retaining wall and driveway to cut through to the garage door. Thanks! testplan3.plan

Is there an easy way to fill a retaining wall area with a layer of Dirt and the a 3" top layer of gravel. Hope that makes sense. thanks. Jimmy

Yes to all, thanks for the help. I just wasn't thinking correct yesterday. It has been a while since I've worked with CA.

not sure how to rotate the cylinder in 2d view? Thanks

Trying to make a sign on a pole. I know I'm close but I cant figure out how to align and attach the two primitives to complete the task. I need to rotate, align and attach the cylinder primitive (sign pole) to the polyline solid (sign face). I just cant figure this out. cant figure how to get the cylinder in the correct position in 2d view. Hope this makes sense.

I'm trying to create a custom concrete hot tub, was wondering if anyone could help me get started with an approach and tools to get me started. Any tutorial videos that could be suggested would be appreciated. I have attached a drawn plan on what I'm trying to create. Much thanks! Jimmy

Got it, had to change ceiling height. Thanks

Created a small deck to use as a Stair Landing, when I raised the deck from floor 0 the rails did not follow, tried to change rail height but it is not working. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Thank you so much, it was driving me crazy.

Yes, I understand that they are rooms labeled as Deck, I just don't no where to set the elevation? Could you send a pict where that is? I imagine it is somewhere here but not sure? Thanks

Trying to create a landing for some deck stairs leading down to a concrete slab (patio). I cant figure out how to lower the landing? Thanks in advance! Jimmy

Thanks, that worked. I guess I was just over thinking it too much.

I found the wall register but it still wants to stay attched to the wall and will not let me put it on my make shift duct. Thanks

I'm on version 10 and tried a few of the settings but did not work. Thanks

That did not work it just allows me to move it behind the box but it still stays attached to the wall.

I have created a make shift HVAC box duct from a shape and brought it up to the ceiling. It looks fine in 3d. Trying to attach some HVAC vents from the library but they appear to be smart object's that will only attach to the wall. Is there a way force them to attach to the make shift box duct I created? Thanks

Trying to move entire flooring back 3" on a second floor Dock so it lines up with the Railing support from the first floor. I just cant figure this out. Is there an easy way to select the flooring and just nudge it back? Thanks

Curious what is the best way to create Posts for the roof structure. Have been using Rails but can't figure out how to hide the railing but keep the post for the structure. Thanks

Finally got it got it! Thanks to both of you. Thanks!!!

The invisible railing worked (for the auto roof) but it closed off the Boat Slip? Thanks in advance!

Trying to get the Auto Build Roof (Hip Roof) to cover over the boat slip section on a dock I'm working on. Hope that makes sense. Much Thanx!

Thanks for all the help. I got it! Thanks again.

I would think with auto roof on that when I create the bay window on the first floor it would auto create the roof over the Bay window for me without going up to the second floor? But thanks for your help!

There must be an easy way to do this? With auto BayWindow.
