  1. Yes I picked that particular tile just because of the color.

    I am opening the  room specification and under walls select material. I am using sprout 322 then click on plan materials and edit. Under pattern I picked grid 1/2 offset. Under texture I checked keep pattern/texture in sync and to the right of the x scale there it shows a pic of the tile. I noticed that does not change to the pattern I picked. No matter what pattern I pick it doesn't change and so the camera view never changes. 

    I just would like  someone to tell me the right method to do this. I just want to go to the dal-tile catalog and pick a tile and apply it to the shower wall and use whatever pattern I choose.

  2. How do you set up a roof overview to send to the layout that shows only lines no shingles. And how do I put cross hatch on the existing roof leaving the remodel with no pattern?

    I can turn off patterns in layer display and if I refresh my layout it will drop the shingles but the plan itself still has the shingles showing. When I select a section of the roof and change the fill nothing happens. I'm missing something here probably simple, but what is it?

  3. Thanks so much for responding.

    I've attached the patio cover I created in a separate plan just to figure out how to do it. But when I move it into the existing house plan I'm working on I can't get it to look like this with out messing up the existing plan.

    When looking at it in perspective framing view I can see all the steel just like I want. But when using perspective full overview the walls come back and I can't see the steel. I need to know how to create this the correct way so I can use it with the existing plan.

  4. I need to draw a structure made of steel I-beams and columns like in the pic. I have never used steel before and I'm having trouble figuring this out.

    Is there a video I should look at or could someone tell me the basic's of what to do to use steel components. I need to be able to use steel for the rafters and

    set a pitch. Any help at all would be appreciated.

  6. I am taking out a couple of walls that are perpendicular to each other, but I need to leave headers to carry the upstairs. One header will be a longer one and the other header

    will tie into it. I need jambs only on one side the other just header to header and the other no jambs showing at all.

    What is the best way to do this.

  8. Just moved over to x6 from x5 and at first the walls had their edit handles but now they are gone.

    I have looked under preferences and they are turned on under show same wall type handles.

    Help says there is a same type wall edit button but I can't find it.

    Where do you turn these back on?
