Great!  Will give it a whirl...

Thanks very much!

If you look at the cheek walls on second floor from the interior in 3d...I can't seem to get them correct?  Also, if you look at the back elevation, I have a couple of misc. lines in the facia I can get rid of either?  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks.

Ok...making progress.  Still a couple of small things...if you look inside in the 3d mode...cheek walls stilll a little funny?  Also, if you take a "back clipped" section...the 21/12 pitches don't seem to be the same elevation???

Thanks so much for the help!

Ugh...sorry don't quite understand.

I can't for the life of me get the dormers to work correctly.  From the exterior I can't get the dormer roof planes to "join" the upper most roof plane?  And also can't seem to get the "inside" to work when viewing in 3d?  Any suggestions are much appreciated...

Where's the best place to post to get some help with a plan I'm working on?

Thank you all for your time.

Here is a section view...but doesn't show the shadow board...

I can't get to a "point" but if I use a 1" facia and change a little framing in the "structural" tab...I can get it close enough.  But the shadow board continues down past the facia as in the previous layout?

Also couldn't get a "flat" soffit to work?

I set the facia to 1"...and can get it most of the way...but when I add the shadow board it extends down past the facia?

Greetings,

I'm trying to put recessed lights in a sloped ceiling.  Pitch is a 6/12.  Can't seem to get the light adjusted to point straight down onto a countertop?  Tried using the eyeballs...

Any suggestions?

Got it.  Thank you Sir.

Hi,

I'm using version 12...I can't seem to find the fireplace tool???

This is a very old boathouse right on the water...I'm really just trying to do a quick drawing for an engineer to spec some "helical" piers to be installed to reinforce parts of the damaged foundation.  Thanks for the help.

I'm trying to customize the height's of these foundation walls...when I edit them in full overview or elevation view they automatically "snap" to something different and disconnect my "broken" wall sections???

Any help would be greatly appriciated.MCGRAW BOATHOUSE EXISTING.plan

Greetings,

Is there any way to apply a "rafter tail" to a poly line solid?  I'm trying to create some members to use for a pergola?

Thanks in advance for any tips.

I'm trying to change the reveal on Lap Siding from default to 6".  I must be missing something because the changes I make are not holding or showing up?

Any help is much appreciated.

Here's one quick way:

1. Orthographic Floor Overview (Shift+G)
2. 3D>View Direction>Top View
3. 3D>Rendering Techniques>Line Drawing
4. OPTIONALLY 3D>Toggle Patterns to turn off excessive linework caused by pattern display.

Thanks!

I was wondering if there is a way to show a preliminary floor plan in a "hand sketched view"?

Thanks in advance for any input.
