I will delete the roof planes and see what happens when I rebuild them. Thanks

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.

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?

I was wondering why he didn't chime in anymore. He decided to quit CA?

Thanks, I had the porch -3 1/2" so I had to compensate in structure tab to subtract that from the taller "walls".

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.

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.

Just may be a little confusing on the plans shown this way.

Ahhhh nice! very cool man, worked great.

Hey guys, is there a way to not have gable soffits but keep the eave soffits so it doesn't look like this and show the lookouts?

Thanks guys!

This has probably been asked before. Since we have options for frieze boards at the top of the wall is their an option in CA to get trim boards at the bottom of the wall without having to do 3d molding polylines around the home? I have always drawn them manually with the general framing tool but want to make different profiles now kind of like my window lintel type.

this fixed it, thanks!

7 years of CA experience here and I still don't understand the macros and haven't taken the time to learn.

Yep, i found it, porch fixed. Apparently there is something going on with my foyer though.
