You are correct, just needed to know how to get that brick ledge depth right. Thanks!

I have been fooling with this for a little while and thought I'd ask. Which setting drops the brick ledge to show like the detail below at 11.5"? mine theirs

Dang chop that was too easy, thanks

Hey guys, I have several security cams shown on my electrical plan. Is there a way to get them to come into the electrical schedule instead of the fixtures schedule?

Do this all the time!

Looks like you have a PC setup like mine. How do you like the Alienware X15 w/ CA X14?

Thanks guys, I will give it a try.

Hey guys and gals, in certain situations CA can automatically develop a shutter style as shown below in red. How can we do this manually?

Thanks Joe!

When you do not get the rotate grip when selecting all, is there a pull down in the menu to do so? This happens from time to time and I usually rotate one at a time. These are basic polylines and autos from the catalog.

Alcohol makes placing or creating dormers less stressful.

Trying to get it to match this....

Occasionally this happens and just wondered how we can prevent this when walls are placed under the stairs. The ceiling plane won't close and the wall stud is exposed.

I hate them unless the home looks nice and it flows together well. Several of the homes in my neighborhood have them and they look nice from the ground level.

I stand corrected, I see what you meant. Good solution Bob.......now how they will frame that attic wall into the ridge is a new question but it looks way better.

I tried that, and because of the overhang it wouldn't work. However, I may not be seeing what someone else see's that is a solution. The client and I both know so I am having him review it with his builder to see if we should change something or if it can be built on site and not a big deal.

That cricket would have to be above that ridge to be functional, correct? That is what I was saying would look ugly.

Guys, this is unique and I am wondering how this can be rectified and not look ugly. Can the builder construct some sort of roof cricket here for shedding water?

I hear ya, lol. As long as the foundation and main floor dims match it seems fine to me. I do what I am asked to make it easier in the field.

Have any of you guys ever had a request from the builder to round dimensions to the nearest 1/2", 1" etc just so there are not any crazy fraction dimensions? Sometimes it is inevitable to get those 16th's dims. I can see how they wouldn't want to pull a tape measure to those. Rounding really cleans up the drawing but can it be a bad thing? I mean any design software allows this option.

This is pretty cool.

My question is if sometimes updates to your card cause crashes what is the harm of never updating and leaving well enough alone? I am so far behind on updates for my 3080.

yeah the "lites" option wasn't available to manipulate on these but I will look into further.

Is there a way to add lites to these doors like we can with windows? Of course I have a request for doors that aren't in the library, or atleast my library.

You are correct, framing in chief. Luckily, I got out of this one since we are just increasing the pitch on the existing awning I built and no curvature. Good job creating that by the way.
