hello Mates, by default, CA builds floors with Floor Joists. How to change them to Floor Trusses instead? thanks

THANKS Drawzilla and Kenoeightspot!!! that must be record timing.. 4 miinutes and 6 minutes!! exactly what I need. and thanks for the screenshots good sirs

here is two 32" windows with a 2" gap in between. Does anyone know how to gang the windows together so there is no space in between? (as shown in image) These are default CA windows with a 1/2" rough opening. any thoughts would be appreicated

thanks for the info guys. i have seen it both ways.. where the door opener was plugged into the ceiling outlet and alsow here the opener was hard wired. but this will work but I wish they had some cool looking switches dedicated to the opener.. they have everything this else one can imagine!!

yah I figured that was the only solution. but what about a garage door button switch?

does anyone know how to get the garage door opener connected to a switch? It will not allow an electrical connection to any type of switch. I do not see even see an garage door opener button switch in the library.. Only the actual garage door opener.

@dshall, thanks for your likings. I understand that this extensive plumbing diagram is not 'required', however I like to provide it to the plumber because why not? This way everyone can see where the pipes run, and that they do not interfere with any other mechanicals so there is no surprise change orders because of a lack of forsight on my part of where the plumbing needs to run. I have designed some kitchen and bathrooms purely based on an aesthetic performance and the plumbing lines were a mess running in every direction, interfering with everything because I did not look at the big picture from the start. When I design a plumbing diagram like this, I am always able to optimize the design and flow, minimize materials and ultimately cut costs. Since I am the designer and the developer, that is a priority for me. Usually "designers" just want it to look good, and do not necessarily have forsight of what is behind the walls.

good afternoon, I have a simple 1 bedroom floor plan and I am designing a 3D plumbing layout as seen in the photos. Since this is a 3D software, I am surprised that the developers have not created more MEP tools to create such 3D layouts like this. I had to import a 3D symbol of a pipe to do it this way. And as you can see, there is no elbows or anything like that..i had to use all 90 degrees connections. does anyone know how I can get these waste lines (yellow) on a 1/4" slope? I want to simulate the plumbing layout to the EXACT specifications so there is no guesswork involved for the plumber.. (and to eliminate any excuses he may have for wanting to lay it out the way he wants to etc etc) And any way to create more realistic pipes, connections, elbows..etc.? any input would be great.

Sorry for the delay guys. @Chiefer.. thanks that works. @David, thanks for your suggestions. for this awning, they do not have a separate material for the cables. I might be better off creating my own with a polyline solid. thanks.

i am using the barrell awning (from CA library) and need to REMOVE the suspension cables.. as shown in the image. Is there any way to do this.. and in general modify any other 3d object from the CA library?
