In CA, if we need at 30 amp plug (120V), do we have a symbol for that? I only see 220V or 110V. Thanks!

Because all hell broke loose when I upgraded from X12-X13 from my library and other files. I finally got X13 set up just like I want. I will upgrade in the future though and read more on migrating settings.

Negative, not for what I charge to do plans. They get what they want.

Thanks guys for the feedback. I knew it was a matter of time before this window type was requested from a client.

do we have this option in X13? "show shutters closed"?

How do you guys achieve this on window settings? Thanks

Really nice website Aussie.

I did make some roof and wall changes today. I wonder if it was occurring because of bad connections somewhere.

This happens when a client makes constant changes for two months on the home. How do we upload large files again?

I have homes from time to time that want to build wall framing for a non existing wall. Is this a glitch? I checked for invisible walls and there is none. I rebuild the wall framing and it goes away, a little later it comes back and I repeat the process.

I see. Definitely answers my question. Maybe that's why I have never seen them on other designer's plans in my region who do residential.

I am interested in learning more on CA construction lines. The tutorial I watched didn't go into too much detail other than making the grid in plan view and them automatically showing up in elevations. Any vids you can suggest on what they are actually used for and what info they can provide to the plan set?

Yeah i have been manually dragging dim lines here and there but want to use CA's speed of things to the fullest. It gets confusing in the settings when you do wall elevations, as an example, and it wanting to dimension things like the molding on top of cabinets which I hate so I very rarely mess with dim settings.

Nice Rob, will give it a go. thanks

I am wanting to change my interior dimensions when I drag them across the interior walls. Can we set it up to hit the edge of the exterior walls and center of interior walls? I have always just used the OOB defaults on this.

Can't you go to the new layout on sheet zero and copy and paste the template/border and then paste on sheet zero of the project layout? That is if I understood you correctly.

Dude that worked great! Keep that money hidden DB!

Can we do round trays in CA? I need to make one for an entry way chandelier. It's going to look awesome once I figure it out. I like the trey ceiling tool and how it frames the ceiling to suit but don't know about a round one.

10-4....you are correct!

To be honest, my CAD skills are better for manual things like trusses and done in Autocad and then brought over to chief. I have noticed though it seems to bog down the drawings when I do this. Maybe from all the truss openings. I worked with the owner on this since he is building it and he already had pics of the trusses he bought so I made them match.

Man, you had me going and rereading what I put haha, thanks for the upvote. I guess some clown has nothing better to do today. Whatever.....Thanks Rob!

Tone? I am confused......I was giving input on how I do pole barns on the downvote post.

a downvote for this.....interesting.

I modify the wall type for a pole barn and manually draw the trusses to look exactly like they are bought. I set up the roof to receive the purlins.
