Big thanks just needed to figure out this origin tool. I love this tool and have used it in rendering many as-builts and this is the first time my plans did not line up. Sincerely Doug

In my studies, I have read a couple of documents as well as watched videos to correct this situation. I change the reference display to show a different plan and the (referenced display) is not on the same axis (x,y,z). At first, I didn't think it was working and then zoomed out and..., way up and to the left, there it is. If memory serves me, this is set at the beginning of the plan, I have been searching around and can't find the information to guide me through this change. In advance thank you for your time in replying. (I know, I hate dumb questions) maybe I am not using the correct lingo (in the search tabs) to find the articles again. Again thank you

X15 Roof Trusses
in General Q & A
Posted
I designed trusses for 15 years, and heel height is 1 number they always ask, we used 11.25 so framers could block with 2x12. I hated chief going from a truss designer to chief... I will have to say I Love the new truss program. Yes 30" is crazy, That is what you would need for a parallel cord truss. Here in Alaska we need the ventilation and insulation so minimum is 11 1/4, t2x6 top, 2x6 bottom... I am far from mastering the roof buy thumbs up to chief.
