Thanks, I will give that a try.

Hey guys, main floor is 36" above grade and garage is dropped down 36". How can I get my auto wall caps on my foundation stem walls to move down without having to do molding polylines around the garage? Just trying to use CA benefits and cut down on the manual stuff. I hate molding polylines.

a little clean up work and manually adding the attic walls seemed to work.

Yeah, it is definitely on.

Hey guys, why aren't attic walls generated when you manually build every roof plane? Could a roof plane not be joined properly in one spot and throw off CA from building them?

Curious about this as well. Even if the truss company can build to suit the trey ceiling will it be as strong? I have a request to do this in a two story home right now.

What a perfect example of a pic.

That's some good info right there. Something tells me you are an engineer.

I agree, of course around here I send my plans of to be engineer stamped but I still try to avoid sending anything that is not able to be built or too complex.

Hey guys, just looking for some opinions. Any structural engineers here in the forum that could suggest a way this would be done structurally? It's a first for me and the client wanted it and also wanted it allow light inside the home. I am very curious how the opening in the vaulted ceiling planes would work. What would what the "tunnel" going thru the attic rest on? Very curious if this is even possible.

Can you develop complete plan sets thru HD? I have never researched it.

hahaha totally.

I am not sure how you set up the roof but when I do dutch gables they always auto build real nice for me.

here is the saved file if you want it back...... 648273596_ExistingHouse.plan

I couldn't get it to auto build without throwing things out of whack but just simply drew a roof plan over the front railing, made the eave heights the same and it came out great. I had to manipulate the roof connections and slide that gable wall back a tad to get it to look right.

did you click on the porch railing, go to roof settings and click dutch gable?

Found it, dang, previous versions OOB never made me dig this deep. Thanks guys, it was on 1/4" defaults

or this.........

Am I in the right area guys? haha this one is getting me..... been a while since I came across something like this I am just not getting.

it all still looks right to me.

I have my labels set up like I want. Working plan is right but in electrical they are still uppercase and bigger font. I have messed with settings for a half hour and cannot figure it out. I can't stand minor things like this holding me up. working plan view electrical plan view

Thanks, I guess suppressing will be the way to go. This was a problem in AutoCad but they had a weird code you could type in the properties box to get it to double line.

Amateur question of the day here. How do we break up the text into double lines when this happens? It rarely happens so I have never investigated.

That was it, not sure why that was unchecked but glad it was an easy fix. Thanks!

Hey guys, I have attached a quick sample of what I am having issues with all of a sudden with monolithic slabs. It won't build with a brick ledge and nothing shows up on level 0. I went thru my settings on the "brick 4" wall and cannot see where anything is wrong. mono issues.plan
