  1. It's not for wheelchair access but more of a rare request. I hear what you are saying though.
  2. I built it in CA.....I can email it to ya if you like.
  3. works pretty good but I couldn't get the bottom to follow the driveway for a nice tie in. That's why I like pline solids.
  4. Is there a way to slice thru a 3d solid and keep the curvature like redlined below? I did it 3 years ago but cannot for the life of me remember how I did it with CA cad tools. Top level with porch and bottom level with grade/driveway. Oh the requests I get from clients.
  5. oh ok, makes sense.
  6. Hello fellow chiefer's. Is this normal? It is the second time I have caught this. Clearly there are two different types of cabinets shown but have the same numbers for the schedule. We have a regular base cabinet with door and upper drawer and one with three drawers. Confused?? each should have their own number and I updated/renumbered the schedule to see if they would change.
  7. I just turned the terrain to asphalt material and poly lined the parking lines, parking bumps and handicap paintings. The keyword is poly lines. I have done a bank, coffee shop and bistro/cafe this way.
  8. I got it to work by manually gripping the window and sizing accordingly and then match roof. The circled area has been an issue for years.
  9. Already tried that as well as manipulating the height of the window size. Nothing works......
  10. Guys, I am having a hard time shaping windows. I know how to "match roof shape" but it still does not make them triangular like shown below in red. I want to delete the middle window and have two perfectly symmetrical triangle windows. I think that would look better for this home.
  11. Found one in sketchup and looks great.
  12. Do we have wine racks with bottles already inserted? I am not about to fill an entire wall rack with wine bottles into my model and my client likes to see detail in his renderings. haha Every library item I downloaded doesn't seem to have what I need.
  13. This could be true......I did have cars and plants/trees in the model. But even when I shut TM down and went back into CA that is where everything starting having the issues I mentioned above.
  14. Downloaded TM and the launcher and my PC went nuts last night. Blinking, flashing, color distort etc. Per my PC specs below this should not have happened and all my drivers are up to date.
  15. Guys, its late in the game for me but I finally am trying twin motion. Which plugin do you use for CA?
  16. CA calculates the heated and cooled. So, that step is done. What I do for total under roof is turn on "room standard area" layer and add the remaining unheated places like porches and garages to the heated calc.
  17. I have wanted this for years, total under roof and heated automated calcs. Every time a client makes a changes I have to remember and go thru and add or subtract the sq footages. Sometimes I forget and the client catches it every time.
  18. Yep! everything turned on, that's what was confusing me as to why they weren't showing.
  19. Manually drawn, pull some grips where they shot they shot thru the roof and they popped right in.
  20. Thanks guys, there is definitely something fishy going on because I tried to manually draw them in and nothing. I will try and load the plan file
  21. Anytime I have came across this I remembered you have to click the walls, (railing in this case), and check full gable for CA to generate the walls. Attic walls are turned on and still nothing is showing. Am I missing something here? "Flat ceiling" is unchecked, just simple lean too's.
  22. It's always something easy. That worked great. Change to black lines and 2 line weight.
  23. cool, thanks a ton!
  24. This CA's out of the box B&B. Not the James Hardie type. I do not use that material. The battens are too close together for my liking.
