This is a new one for me guys. How do I get the soffit to drop down flush with my i-joist rafter tails? See below screenshots................thanks as always!

Sounds like a plan, I just checked and my "bumping/pushing" icon is checked.

Guys, I think I turned off a setting or something. The automatic fillers keep going away after I reopen the file each day. I have to move the cabinet to recognize the filler to come back. Thoughts? before after I move them out of place and back in position

there is one

Guess it is time to upgrade!

Is there a way to get ride of this when doing renderings physically based? Sun shouldn't be shining thru joints in the home.

Dude, this was awesome. It worked and thanks! I will be honest, I have used CA since 2018 and never used the shelf ceiling option.

Hey guys, I have a garage with a vaulted ceiling. In that same space I have a safe room and half bath. I have those spaces with 9' ceilings. As you can see below there is no need to run the walls all the way up to the vaulted garage ceiling. I want flat separate ceilings in them. I assume if you guys have an answer to this it will also add back the drywall where I have the question mark. When I delete the upper walls they turn into invisible walls and won't go away completely. This has happened in the past but I just let it fly cause you couldn't tell on the plans but it would be nice to figure out what I am doing wrong.

I am down here in Daphne staying busy since 2018 god willing.

Good solution as well.

I was gonna do a polyline solid but like your idea of the pass thru too. Would the soffit tool be something good for this too?

Guys, what is the easiest way to add a wall above this entertainment center in a vaulted area and close off that space? I am not familiar with a tool to do this that I bet exists in CA.

Wisdom right there. The ONLY way I do it.

Thanks Ben, I was just about to call you guys before the weekend hit but then saw this.

Hey guys, where do we pay for our SSA renewel. Mine expires in two days and I do not see a payment option in the digital locker, just an option to upgrade to X16. Thanks

rustic wood catalog changes the texture, "adjust material def" works but needs a little work to blend it together.

Thanks Jim, I will check it out and post a pic!

Do we have anything in the library to reflect this look or similar. Applying stain as a color on the board and batten in CA still doesn't give it a look like below.

I keep what I can that CA generates and manually change/rotate where I feel the need.

I share your pain on this and interested to hear feedback.

When I stopped to really think about it, I realized I was working the software against itself. The highlighted portion is the second floor over the bottom. I had the entire rear porch at 9'. When I changed the portion of the rear porch below the second floor to 10' it seemed to save changes throughout. Man, talk about a headache.............we shall see.

Thanks Gene, good catch but no this is a seperate similar home. I am going to check into the 2nd floor defaults like you mention. That makes good sense. As far as attaching plan files, what's the easiest way? Link to a cloud server?

Howdy guys, question on different ceiling heights. In my default settings the first and second levels are set at 9'-0" ceilings. However in the middle wing of the home they want 10' ceilings. Not so much a problem on doing that. However, every time I reopen the file to continue working on the home the 10' section always goes back to 9' and I have had to select the spaces and manually change the settings back under the structure tab. It is getting old very fast. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong? Pic below, the second floor sits directly above the 10' section so you can imagine the floors sink down when the bottom floor ceiling reverts back to 9'. I don't want to keep changing it just to get by. I'd like to learn the correct way. Thanks.

Well after all the talking with the client we decided to make the ceilings 10’ which made my job a lot easier. Thanks everyone, I am sure I will need to come back to this thread sooner or later if this topic is brought up again with new jobs.

thanks, I was trying to avoid that because they wanna keep the 9' ceilings and then go up with the tray.
