That was so easy! Thank you SO much!

How do you create double barn doors for a doorway? I've looked in the Library and can't find it as an option, so I just assumed it would have to be created. I've tried putting two barn doors together but CA puts a post in between the doors. I need the doorway to stay open and each barn door on either side of the opening. I've attached a photo of what I need to create. Any help would sure be appreciated! Thank you! Denise Chief Architect X14 Windows 10, Intel i7, 11th gen, 8 core, 32 GB Nvidia, GeForce RTX, 12 GB

Thank you!

Is there a cad detail for a beam pocket in CA x13? Denise Chief Architect X13 Windows 10, Intel i7, 11th gen, 8 core, 32 GB Nvidia, GeForce RTX, 12 GB

Yes, found it. Thank you for helping this novice, sure appreciate your time.

Chopsaw - it worked! Thank you for your help! One more question, if you have time. How did you get the whole to arc?

Thank you

Ho did you do that? I've been trying your idea of putting a room around it and that didn't work.

Okay, thank you!

I'll give that a try. Have you created a window well in a concrete slab, if so how did you do it? Should I have created it differently to begin with?

It's just a concrete slab...a patio (Monolithic slab with floor underneath room checked) . Oh, good point! I'll include a rail on that side of the stairs. Thank you!

I've created a window well around a window in a basement but can't create the hole in the concrete above the window well. I've tried terrain hole and slab hole but nothing is putting the actual hole in the concrete - only the outline of the window well is showing in the concrete when I render in 3D. How do you create the hole? Denise Chief Architect X13 Windows 10, Intel i7, 11th gen, 8 core, 32 GB Nvidia, GeForce RTX, 12 GB

I fixed the wall and it went away. Thank you so much for the help!

Where did you find that chart?

Yes! So, I guess I just need to find the bad wall and fix it?

What is the circle with two lines that follows the mouse and how do I get it to go away? Thank you in advance for the help! Denise Chief Architect X13 Windows 10, Intel i7, 11th gen, 8 core, 32 GB Nvidia, GeForce RTX, 12 GB

ericepv - that worked perfectly. Thank you!

Yes, framing is built and I can see the 2x4 walls in the perspective framing overview. I wanted to have the 2x4 walls show in the Full Camera View. I'll try what ericepv suggested.

In 3D view just to visualize

I'm designing an unfinished basement with just the 2x4 walls framed in - no cover material nor drywall. How can you do that so in the 3D view you can see the unfished 2x4 walls? I'm using CA x13.

Oh, never mind, I got it to open. Thank you Mark3D! I was hoping to keep the entire gable end on the existing house and attach the gable end of the addition to that...without having that funny looking square/rectangle taken out of the addition gable end...but maybe that's impossible?

Gable roofs for addition.plan I can't seem to open the file - this error keeps popping up:

Gable roofs for addition.plan 428734283_Gableroofsforaddition.plan

Existing addition roof.plan

If anyone has any ideas about this I would sure appreciate the help! I'm new at this and am using CA X13 version. I'm building an addition to an existing house. The existing house has gable ends and the addition (36' x 24') will come off the front and extend beyond the existing house (14' past the end of the existing house). The addition also has gable ends and I'm simply trying to tie in the gable end on the addition to the gable end on the existing house. The program keeps doing weird things to the existing gable end and transforms it into all kinds of odd shapes. A friend helped me but she has a weird cut out in the roof that I'm not crazy about. Is there anyway to make this work? I've attached photos - the first one labeled "Existing addition roof" is the design my friend created with the weird cut out in the roof. The second attachment labeled "Gable roofs for addition" is what I'm trying to do, however the roof lines are still a bit squirrely and don't tie in properly (which you can only see that from a side shot and I didn't take a photo of that). Roof pitch is 6/12. Thank you, Denise rydalchd@gmail.com Existing addition roof.pdf Gable roofs for addition.pdf
