I just used angle hatching for now. Seems to work fine at 1" or 3/4 when I print black and white.

Wall Types I was trying to come up with a wall type for my new walls that will show when I print in black and white. I thought maybe dots would work but when I print, it doesn’t show the dots. I don’t like solid black walls. I prefer gray but it doesnt show up when print in black and white. I have to print in color or grey scale Any Ideas, Anyone?

Thank you for the response. Just to understand it helps me. I look forward to continued improvements of the Project Manager. I like it and I think it will be a useful tool.

What drawzilla said

This is confusing. Why does the project browser allow for duplicate file names? Are they going to be the same when I open each one or will they be different? Anybody else having this problem or concern?

I have never done anything with the asset managment. Is that something Im supposed to cleanup and mantain? There are a lot of files in it that I dont use.

Hey Guy's and Gal's, I just started using the project browser (manager) in X17. I confused in the purpose of what the Common Documents are used for. Is it only just a storage folder for documents or is there more to it than than? The reason for my question is that when I bring PDF's into my plan or layout, I was trying to figure out where the pdf would be stored in the project browser. Any input would be helpful and any other dialog for using the project management system. I watched the video and read what I could in the help section. I think I understand a lot of it but would like to know more from others that are using it. Thank You This is the way I have mine setup so far. Note: When i click on any of the folders on the let the common documents and plan and layout templates dont show up. Im sure that is typical. Not sure.

The roof somehow got off from one side to the other and it was generating an attic wall along this line and was affecting the corner of the railing wall. I just figured it out now and thought I better post it. Thank you all very much for all the help.

This kind of stuff drives me nuts. I usually find out it has to do with wall alignment, invisible walls or just how walls are structured. Most of the time I figure it out but this one has got me stumped. Untitled 1.zip

Noted, Thank You Sir

Thank you Guy's, very helpful This helps and reenergizes me to investigate customizing my materials list so it can work for me. I’m sure I will have more questions and comments to add to this thread as I put things together. I need to review some videos and get reacquainted with the materials list. It’s been about 5 years since I tried to use it and I’m sure there has been lots of changes that I don’t know about.

I never have understood the wallboard (drywall) section. I wish I could rely on it for material quantities but its to confusing and I never know if it is including the ceiling wall board (drywall). I like the "Insulation" section beter. It says whats walls and ceilings. Im sure you can customize it but It always seems to time consuming and I can do take off faster with a pencil and calculator. Dont get me wrong, I am a total Cheif Architect fan I just wish the material list were better.

While you have my plan would you mind looking at the outside corner for me? When I bring the roof to the wall it breaks the corner.

I dont know whay I did not see this before

Yes, of course. Here is my plan file. You will also see Im having issues with one of the corners. Thank You Untitled 1.zip
