hahaha I hear that! The way it should be.

Why on earth are people doing that? I just did a set for a small camp and the owner/builder isn't pulling a permit. He isn't messing around either. Within two weeks of finishing his drawings he sent pics of the whole thing framed and blacked-in and he even had cmu pilings which I am sure takes longer than a standard slab.

Learned something new today, thanks......

Is that the same? I mean I guess I could rename the symbol. Thanks.

Yeah, I looked there and the assortment but didnt see any.

Doing an office renovation and cannot for the life of me find an electrical symbol for an ethernet outlet. Do we have anything in CA? I see some in Sketchup 3D warehouse but the models aren't that good and come in distorted and out of shape OR multiple ones at once. Confused why this isn't a standard electrical item in CA.

Oh man, I'm old school but I can do without landlines haha. I do the same note for landscape and soffit lighting as well. Less I have to show and soffit lights can be a pain and not attach sometimes.

Hey guys, how many of you still add tv coaxial or the CA Cat 5 symbols for TV locations? In a world where everything is streamed is this something you still add? Or do you add a note like myself stating "Any TV cable locations to be coordinated between homeowner and electrician"?

Is the origin "x" indicator equivalent to placing a drawing at 0,0,0 in AutoCad?. Just curious, and if so how is that helpful to us?

Not my favorite but it don't look too bad. These plans are for a builder I work with and it will be a spec house and he knows what he is doing so I am sure he will make it look good.

Thanks guys, I have to leave the pitch the same as shown. If I do two roof planes butted up to each other the boxed eave won't close I bet but I will add some pics on here once I get it done.

I was thinking of doing the same thing but wondered how the roof framing would generate. Thanks

Is there a way to expose rafters tails on one part of a roof plane and keep the remaining "boxed" as shown? Client wants exposed rafter tails on the porch only.

Yeah, from the very first time I used CA and pulled a leader line with text it was rich text so that's what I used from day one.

What is the main difference with rich text though?
