Yeah, that's what I meant.

here's the result of b) above:

Shane, a) you could create your DW / cabinet combo in an X16 plan and copy/paste it forward into your X17 plan (old school). b) you can modify a base cabinet to show back panel only. Here, below, I show a base cabinet where I have turned off toe kick, done an appliance opening for the front face, and for the left and right panels I have selected "none." I would think this would work for your situation.

North Pointer / CAD Block / Multiple Floors Question
JKEdmo replied to JKEdmo's topic in General Q & A
OK, I figured it out: Turns out I needed to update the Angle / Quadrant Bearing setting for each floor level. Once I did that the angle bearings showed correctly. The CAD Defaults setting is unique to each level. Learned something new today. Jim -
Looks like the floor plan is a polygon. There is a Polygon Shaped Room tool in the Build menu drop down. Try that.

Hello, I created my lot boundary lines on level 1 with the CAD polyline showing length / quadrant bearings. I added my North Pointer and rotated to true north. The lot boundaries updated correctly to show true bearings. All well and good. Level 1: Then, I blocked these lot lines for convenience in order to copy across multiple floors as I'd like to show lot lines, setbacks, etc. on different levels. My problem is the lot boundary bearings do not show correctly when I copy/paste to the new floors. Even if I add a new north pointer to the level is does not work. Other levels: Your insight appreciated. I suspect North Pointer does not play well with blocked polylines. (I also swear I figured this out before but I just cannot remember!) Thanks again, Jim

There are materials available:

I think you are in good hands with Robert. Follow his tips to get the hang of it. I did a quick import of your DWG into an X16 metric plan template with units set to meters. Attached is the .plan result. It appears to be scaled correctly. For example, the parking stalls measure out to be 3 meters in width exactly (same as Autocad file). DWG IMPORT - X16.zip

Post the DWG and I can take a look at it. Jim

Have you seen this? Just tried for first time. Neat.

Yes, it might be an optical illusion. The stair does looks like it might have different radii, but the coffered ceiling directly above looks like it could be circular.

It is possible to break the curved stair into multiple segments and have different radii for each segment:

One Layout, Two Plans, Can I merge the plans into one plan?
JKEdmo replied to Ed_Orum's topic in General Q & A
Can you use Edit Area (All Floors) to copy-in-place the content of one plan into the other? -
Joe, Have you seen this? https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/watch/354/framing-with-attic-trusses.html Jim
