  1. When exporting plan file as a dwg how is scale set? I export at 1/4"=1' or 1'=1' and when opened in DWG viewer all dimensions are inches. A 3' opening is 3" wide in DWG view in both exported scales.
  2. Transoms will drive your window budget off the chart, usually transom are at least 50%-100% of the cost of unit below. If price no object, I like the transom look.
  3. "AnyDWG" or "Autodesk" offers programs.
  4. Grab the roof and move it, 4' flat under new porch is a poly solid. MaCay Patio mine.plan
  5. Download file and look at it.
  6. Fixed roof, needs fine tuning. MaCay Patio mine.plan
  7. As many advise on this site, build the model as it is in the real world.
  8. build new floor/start from blank plan/ draw deck on outside of building/adjust floor level from dbx. That one took about 5 minutes or less. I'm sure others will have other alternatives. Maybe build deck in new floor plan and save as symbol is another thought.
  9. Messing around with "live view" when sending to layout
  10. Turn off "roof auto rebuild roof", go to default settings/roof and uncheck box. Next, raise ceiling in room dbx. https://video.chiefarchitect.com/?search=tray+ceiling
  11. Set your roof default pitch at 5/12, open dbx of each wall on garage and select roof, change roof pitch to 4/12 (unselect "gabel roof" to allow change of pitch and after pitch change re-select gabel roof) and it will auto build roofs all day long. 235 St Francis Hip Roof 03182016 mine.zip
  12. Download problem was at my end. Walker.Patrick One Story mine.zip
  13. Post #3 agrees with Solver too.
  14. After reading this post and messing around with it I have UNCHECKED xor box. Always learning
  15. Take a screen shot and show problem
  16. Not sure what your doing wrong but I still can not download file. I just downloaded another forum file 10 minutes ago so it's not on my end.
  17. Build foundation under it and you have control of just single room to change it.
  18. I have tried to download your file from both of your posts and file is corrupt. After download and unzip when I try to open it version 17 pops up and tells me you're using version 18 and I can't open it.
  19. Re boot puter before any rash moves.
