  1. Should it be under "distance rounding"?
  2. No, never. Something is definitely off. However, I can work around it because I cannot figure it out.
  3. Thanks! I will look into this.
  4. Hey guys, I set up my dimensions to round off to the nearest 1/2" on this particular job and noticed this. I design to 23' but it dimensions to 23-0 1/2". Not good. Is there an X15 update to fix this bug?
  5. Thanks, Rene sounds like a good solution. I am also intrigued by other posts on this thread about AI and architecture. Kind of like the internet in the mid to late 90s. Before I had I didn't understand just what it was.
  6. That looks great. How did you do that?
  7. I'm thinking it is lighting because it is fine in standard & vector. I've been overlooking this for years but finally just decided to post this. Again, not a big deal but CA has so many cool features to produce professional and fancy looking plans as my builders have said that this shouldn't be an issue in PBR's.
  8. Hey guys, anyone know why metal siding renders like this. The upper portion often has a different contrast. Not a big deal but it would be nice to showcase my work to the client even for the smallest jobs like this.
  9. I will delete the roof planes and see what happens when I rebuild them. Thanks
  10. Yeah, the ceiling joists still aren't wanting to mitre even with a manual slab drawn with now definition. I gotta outsmart this I guess just to get the drawing done.
  11. Hey Guys, I am designing a simple carport for a client. On this project they already have an existing slab, I am not sure what it once was, maybe a parking pad. The builder wants to to bury the posts on the outside of the slab and let me tell you right now CA doesn't like that. It is messing up my roof and ceiling joists. The LVL's are on the outer edge of the posts which makes the roof "baselines" messed up or something. I need to mitre my joists manually or something. Any suggestions, see below? I wish I could figure out how to ask this in a more understanding way but I can't. My existing slab is built with railing walls by the way. Maybe try and erase those walls and build a simple "slab" with the slab toolbar?
  12. I was wondering why he didn't chime in anymore. He decided to quit CA?
  13. Thanks, I had the porch -3 1/2" so I had to compensate in structure tab to subtract that from the taller "walls".
  14. I did try this but there is still two problems. a) the opening perimeter is a tad taller than the existing rim joists. b) the treated lumber texture is rotated the wrong way. I know if I "adjust material def" its just gonna screw it up the opposite way.
  15. Hey guys, how would you work around this? I need the rim joists to supersede the railing walls at the opening. They wanna keep the stairs under the roof.
