Just coming up with this actor in his day reveals you must not be a young buck -
Have to go out for a few hours so I will try symbols when I get back. Haven't worked with symbols in a while so I have to check the help.

I may have to manually put the rafters in and turn off the rafters layer Unless someone else has easier way another way.

I tried to run a roof from the top down and putting a negative pitch but it recognized the lower portion as the eaves
-
Anyone know how I can get a radius on both ends? Its not recognizing the top as rafter tails.

Thank you very much! This helps me a lot also. I'm getting a better understanding
-
Thank You! I had it all set up I just wasn't using it properly. You told me exactly what I needed to know.
-
Steve, I apologies for my lack of being able to explain what I need. I will go back to my seminar videos and see if I can find my answer there. I don't even know how to properly explain what I'm trying to do. Thank You

I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around the cameras and cross section view, layers and defaults. I make a new layer called "cross sections" because I want to separate it from the elevation camera views and it works real nice. The problem is that I want to be able to save the settings but if I change them for the framing sections at 3/8 or 1/2" scale then It messes up the camera views. Is there a way of saving and/or copying this call out so I don't have to set it up 2 or 3 times on every drawing I do? I'm afraid that if I set it as the default than it will mess up the camera views I use for elevations. Just having a hard time understanding it. Any help would be appreciated. I need to understand sections better because it seems like I spend a lot of time on them and they could be more be more automatic.

Rotate Note Numbers Within The Note Schedule?
builtright3 replied to HumbleChief's topic in General Q & A
Seems like a waste of time and energy to me Larry. Sometimes I get hung up on these little things and it ends up being a monumental waste of time when I could have just built what I needed in a cad detail (for example) for something that I rarely even need or just except it just the way it is. -
Yes, section is just for visualization only (doesn't have to be perfect). This note is all the city requires for me to give them along with a section (visualization only). Or at least before you start framing depending on what the city wants. Depends on the job and city
-
I like to put in a truss when I take my section cut. You just have to adjust your rafters and ceiling joist and take out the birds mouth cut and the truss will lay right over it.
-
Seems like a pretty unusual request. No idea how you would do that. Curious to see if anyone else replies with an answer.
-
Can you elaborate on how to do that? An example maybe.
-
Here is one example of what I was thinking but I don't know how I would make a line style like this to be automatic to where you can just select and drag. The most used by me would be a 2% and 5% Any ideas or thoughts?
-
Anyone want to share how they show direction of grade on site plan? I always use individual arrows with percentage of grade and just place them around the house as needed. Wondering what other ways I can display grade slope percentage. Most of my projects are 2 to 5 percent and I don't need to set terrain so I leave it flat. So the elevation data wont work. Your thought and suggestions would be appreciated
-
The reason I was having the problem was because I had one wall placed against the other so I didn't have the options for room definition. So I moved my wall out and made a room so I had the option and then it was fine. Thank you for your response.
-
Thank you Perry, I figured it out. I just made it a room rather than to have one wall up against the other.
-
How do I do that because it wont select as a room? I tried to post the plan but forgot the procedure to do that.
-
Missing Drywall: It seems like I had this problem once before but for the life of me I cant remember how to fix it. I tried to go through all the wall settings. Please help if you can
-
I always do an As-Built drawing and use it for my demo plan and when I start the revisions I save it as new plan. Then you can send each one to layout.

I know where this dialog box. I will try to ask the question better; If I want a surface mount light to set automatically in a bedroom and a can light to automatically set in a laundry room or hallway, how can I set that? Or is it even possible? I'm talking about automatic placement, not having to go in the library and get it. Chief can change this but can we?
