They don't even have training videos for 3D Cladding yet just in the what's new

Following, as I've been bit by this too. I know using 3D solids can be used to trim the landing but the protruding trim, dunno.

Have you tried to use the Join Roof Planes tool? Click on one of the roof plane edges you wish to join, hit '2', which is the quick key for that tool, then the edge of the other roof plane you want to join. You should see them merge, left click your mouse to confirm and hopefully Chief will build the ridge cap as well.

Thanks y'all I'll give it a go! Cody

Howdy, Anybody have a suggestion how to do this sort of cottage brick detail in CA? Thanks in advance! Cody

Thanks! I tried that... the culprit was an invisible wall.

Brilliant! Exactly what I was looking for! The wall was in the plan and invisible. That did it for me. Thanks!

Hey folks, Trying to clean up my wall type definitions and was wondering what strategies you can employ to track down where a particular wall type is being used. When I try to delete a wall type in the Wall Type Definition DBX it tells me that this one wall type is in use in my plan, and perhaps it is being used in my defaults. Here is what I've done to try and figure out where it is but apparently, I haven't found the culprit yet. 1) I turned the exterior material of the wall type I want to delete bright red so I could see if anything in my plan is using it. 2) I went through every single wall default and made sure that those definitions are not using the wall type I want to delete. Are there other defaults that use a wall type that I'm missing? Thanks! Cody

Nevermind, solved it... but this is a "good to know" so I'll leave it here. In your floor structure definition, each layer has its own structure attributes (rather than the whole floor structure only having a single attribute). If you didn't click on each layer in the floor and see the settings change you might not realize it. In the screen shot you can see that the OSB Hrz layer is selected and the framing is set to Truss, so it creates this little truss strip made of OSB. Likewise, if you click on Fir Framing 1, it will also be set to truss. If I uncheck the "Framing" checkbox on the OSB layer, it fixes the problem.

Looking in my floor definitions, I definitely understand why there is 3/4 OSB above my trusses. 14" Web trusses, with 3/4" OSB as the subfloor. That said, I was expecting SHEETS of OSB over the top of the trusses rather than little strips. Those little strips also show up in my schedule and you can select them in the 3D view. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong?

We are in Granbury

Seen this in X14 & X15, I have to hit Zoom Extents, sometimes a few times, to rectify.

Thanks! I'll give that a go!

Interesting tip! Thanks DB. I'm going to experiment a bit on upcoming projects and see which is the easiest. Cody

In the Framing tools? Interesting thought, I'll dig into it. Thanks!
