guys, first time using lattice. this is a polyline solid and im not happy with it using what i circled. what is the best way to create this? library has "lattice 1" lattice 2" & "lattice 3" but it wont spray the pline solid. surely you dont have created the holes in pline solid to see thru for a realistic view?

Yep, that was it. Works great.

yall mean this?

what exactly do you mean?

my settings are exactly like that and still get the dimensions to the brick.

is there a setting for automatic dims on a foundation to pull from the stemwall and not the brick veneer?

you are correct. i found that clicking on the wall around the window doesn't work. you have to click on the actual window itself for the tab button to find it. thanks

tried that but its a block. it doesnt show where it can be exploded to manipulate anything.

Hey guys, can we not set the window sizes and make a roof and bottom in the settings as shown in the pics?

i was talking about my back hair, lol

right on, that helped alot. thanks

i am pulling my hair out on this home's foundation. Can someone look and see where i am going wrong in my settings? the main home should be 30" above grade on stemwalls. the garage and storage is the only thing that keeps messing up and trying to build stemwalls when i clearly need mono slabs. help greatly appreciated. also, my manual ceiling plane in garage is missing in ortho views but the layer is on.

yeah i really don't like request like this from clients. everything flows in chief for a reason.

thanks joey, will do.

am i missing something? when i do that it changes the label not the number like i need.

nice, two sides works great. but i still need to see if changing the part number is feasible. he wants to add a "b" in the cabinet number for blind cabinet.

guys, i have two questions. a) i have a 36" sliding barn door for an interior closet. the client wants it to be (2) 18" barn doors. how can we do this? b) client also wants to specifically name the door and cabinet numbers. (ie. D08, C04 ETC.) can we somehow rename those in the dbx? i do not want to turn the schedule into text (explode). defeats the purpose of chief.

yep, two in the same wall. looks great

never mind, it worked when i chose only two windows at a time. thanks chop

i read where you can deleted the 24" seperation between windows?

this tutorial was made in february 2019 in the attachment so i am assuming this can be found in X11. can you tell me where to find it. i have a set of bay windows i need to mull and have one casing all around.

i hear ya guys. the homeowner just doesn't understand the process on his project and is getting very impatient of only two weeks in engineering. this project has been quite the changeup for me to say the least. i hope what i turned into the engineer on friday gets stamped on monday because i fulfilled every request he wanted to see. if he asks more of me the homeowner is going to flip out.

Thanks for the feedack guys. This is the first time i have dealt with an engineer one on one and making his changes myself. Where i used to live no engineering was needed. I actually like my stuff stamped. Takes the responsibility off me.

Yeah, it has gotten real strict where i live. Most clients and builders are happy with my work, but then you have the one every now and then that picks the drawing apart and gives me their live story on what they normally see on plans. Cant win all the time right? In no way am i being sarcastic to those mentioned, every one is different. I just like the easy going ones lol.
