Do you have a macro that I can insert into a text to reference Plan Cad Details.. for example, i have a foundation detail on Sheet A5. I want to then reference the detail on another sheet of the layout saying "...see foundation detail on Sheet A5" but rather than manually typing the sheet number of the detail, it would dynamically update in case the sheet numbering changes....

I am curious as to what folks are doing with their typical detail drawings. Do you save them within the project's plans? Do you same them within the project's layout? Are they on their own file? What are the advantages and disadvantages of each method....

I created symbols for specialized blocks to use on retaining walls. There are 3-4 block types i am using depending on the size of wall. i want to get a count of how much i need for each type of blocks (schedule).

Which is the schedule to use to quantify geometric shapes?

You prepare your plans and insert all your details in a layout. Get all your call outs correct, then things get added/changed and your page numbering changed. How do you manage revising all the call outs? Have you found a way to dynamically link a call out to a detail so that when the page numbering does change, you are not having to hunt for those call outs to manually change. Can you share your ideas or what you've done to help manage this issue?

Thank you for the suggestion. I also tried drawing a railing adjacent to an invisible wall, seem to work ok. I will search your suggestion. Thank you!

Hello CA experts... what is the best way to model deck railing that has its newel and balusters shown attached to the rim joist. CA defaults to having the railing in line with the joist and mounted above.

Very nice, thank you.. it required breaking the foundation wall at each location, but the drawing looks much cleaner.. thank you!

That is exactly what i am after....

I have 2 exterior walls that intersect with an interior wall in the garage. The exterior pony wall appears on the interior side of the wall...Whats the best way to fix this issue?

Here is one i have that i had to place a blank line between to get some text separation Doc1.pdf

The right is what i have now... text with cad lines...too much to manage... How did you add the grid on the rich text?

I wanted a bit more space between lines of text. the default looks crowded to me...
