rgardner replied to dshall's topic in General Q & A
Without knowing what is sluggish I am guessing the ram is not helping. @dshall -

rgardner replied to dshall's topic in General Q & A
Thats a good machine but I personally would upgrade at least the ram and if you have the 5700 gpu available go for it as the imac is not easily upgradeable in the future. Nice machine though!!! -
This has been discussed quite at length on many occasions so a search for this information would be very helpful for you. https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/search/?q=railing wall posts&updated_after=any&sortby=relevancy&search_and_or=and Couple of quick helper tips: 1.) Try breaking the wall and seeing what happens to the posts 2.) Make it invisible and place your posts and beams manually with the framing tools to get precise locations, footings, precise labels, etc.

For many reasons Windows do not update framing headers after being placed unless you change it in the window DBX. Works well as I can set my LVL headers to 9 1/4 then place my windows on first floor for one builder of mine who wants that as long as it covers all openings, then when I go to second floor he changes to 7 1/4 or 5 1/2 (whatever is min for all windows). He does that so they dont have to figure out which size header on each floor. 99% of the time it is one size. So in that case I will change defaults between floors. That long unnecessary explanation leads to this. If you want all your windows to change header size, marquee select all the windows open them at once and change the header size/type in the framing panel of the window dbx.

Can you post a screen grab or snip of what you see for your user library? Many times the issue when not seeing your library is that a filter got initiated somehow.

BTW it is bumping into your window because it is going to conflict with it. If it's a base cabinet it is too low. If it is a wall cabinet it will stop it at the casing edge. This is so you don't design something that doesn't work.

How to get rid of all these lines showing on my foundation.
rgardner replied to MasterpieceODL's topic in General Q & A
Are you sending a live standard view with color off by chance? Try sending from vector view a plot line version of this view and see if it fixes the issue for you. -
Exclamation Inside a caution sign that wont go away
rgardner replied to Denzil's topic in General Q & A
Do you have a room adjacent that is two stories? As in there is a room above the adjacent room with open to below selected? If so you do have two finishes as the adjacent room reads as a separate ceiling finish. If that is the case (took me a while to figure that out on a job) then use Dermot's suggestion above. -
Couple of great designers there in that area. @Renerabbittand @MKBDesign

Add 22.5” or 14.5” wide rafters with the materials as insulation.

It’s December bro. It’s beta time.

You can user the post with footing tool and even set it as a wood post, concrete post, metal post, etc. Square round, etc. That will control itself off your terrain if you set it accordingly. For the Frost wall if you have a loaded column where you need an extra thickened footing at that point you can either break the wall and change the offset and footing size for that part or use the round pier or square pad tool under that foundation wall and set it separately from the regular wall footing.

I work with another designer who uses interiors and as long as I set it up using premier she is able to access it but she is unable to set it up to reference the other plan. This was in X12 we confirmed that and we have not revisited it in x13 as I do all of her as-builts and alot of the proposed plans for her so it is all setup in the template.

Any way to set linetype for countertops on an individual basis?
rgardner replied to Richard_Morrison's topic in General Q & A
Use the custom countertop tool select the ones that stay and use create custom countertop tool for those then select the ones that go. Then you can change the line style for the demo one. For the sink select it and use the new edit cad block tool to change the 2d symbol. that way it is still there in 3d to reference. -
Every region is a little different but the majority of what I see has the sheathing layer overlapping the rim joist. But that is generally with a cmu or pc stem wall. ICF comes from different manufacturers some of whom will actually place a nailing plate into the outer layers of the ICF for the sheathing to nail into as well. But it all depends on how you want the wall to build. Even with the sheathing in the exterior layer which I think the grand majority do have it there, you can change to which layer the platform and dimensions go to under the wall settings portion of that same dbx.

To answer your question is part of the wall goes into another room, or the floor joists span into another room. If you want to frame only that room change the framing group. As best practice and to get more help. a png or jpg picture file dragged or pasted into the forum will allow other users to see your issue without having to download something from an unknown person. Many will just keep scrolling past instead of possibly helping you.

Custom Backsplash on Soffits or Polyline Solids?
rgardner replied to J_Mack's topic in General Q & A
I am assuming you want different materials on different faces as well. IF that is the case what Glenn is saying here makes the solid a separate surface on each plane. Top, bottom, left, right, front, back, etc... -
I do think a slightly lighter line weight would be helpful. But depending on the colors a dark gray instead of black does seem to look nice. All depends on the scheme. And yes much prefer the beta over the full release for those plants... This is with the dark gray line overlay. As you can see it is a basic rendering and I don't bother to put in plants because I know what it will look like.

Also a quick button for that on the right side menu bar OOB.

Use the open item within your library to see what layer it is being assigned to and make sure that layer is turned on in your new drawing.
