  1. Thanks Bob. I was trying it from plan instead of layout. All good now.
  2. My layout contains plan files from different folders. How do I find the address of a plan file in the computer?
  3. It's only CAD lines and text. That's how I do it.
  4. Cat6e will be the game changer but not before the end of the year. Much greater speed. Not working at full speed on Cat6 cable.
  5. you can design it that way but I think it might create problems building the stairs ( post anchor location and 6" requirement from tread...). There is a video on YouTube that explained it. I'll look for it.
  6. It happen to me before. Here is a link to my rescue https://www.techspot.com/guides/226-bring-lost-window-back-desktop/
  7. I have HP Spectre360 with Intel 620 chip. It runs two external monitors; one 24in 1080 and one 27in 4k with no problem.
  8. Thanks Rene. I have loaded the file Cab Extruded Handle Piano.plan Cab Extruded Handle Piano.plan
  9. I was working on a CAD detail in metric and that happened. How did I get these dimension lines and how to get rid of them? I tried and played with Preferences and Defaults for no results. Cab Extruded Handle Piano.zip
  10. Thank you Mark and David.
  11. I want 2" space between the cabinet and the wall. It wants to grab wall. How do I win?
  12. I hope your T24 complied with a large margin because the new one will be reduced by a lot considering an electric water heater. I would favor a house without gas.
  13. I use that on exterior steps for a deck where I can expand the length of the steps. Low risers but longer threads make it easier to climb: 6R15T/6R
  14. I also use a thumb rule that is "2 risers + 1 thread =~ 27"" when risers are low or threads are deep. Great for decks or walkway steps
  15. Solver, sorry for this late reply but thank you for your help on the framing issue I had.
  16. Here is the file. I will appreciate any comment related to that design too I have tried to keep the original element of the building but i think there is a problem with the front roof line. Framing_Issues.zip
  17. Any reason roof rafters would not frame?
  18. Thanks solver and Joey. Its time to upgrade to X11 but I want to upgrade the computer too.
  19. Solver, I am using X-8. You may have referred me to a X-11 layer name. In X-8 the layer set name is "Opening indicator" It does not create a dotted line to represent the header over a window. I guess I will use a dotted polyline. Time to update to X-11
  20. Thanks solver. I never used that one.
  21. We have door headers but no window headers. I'm still in X-8. Do we have window headers in X-11?
  22. Doors and windows have a label showing on floor plan. When I open "Door Schedules" or "windows schedules" , a second label is attached to the units but it has a different number. Then I have two different labels. If suppress label in the window dbx, then both go away. Any remarks about this? Thanks This is on CA-8
