You should just go purchase my Screened Porch Library and save yourself a lot of hassle.

Totally agree!

I've used the method Ryan mentions for years. Works great and is simple - one of my favorite words!

Tool heck with the texture, where can I get that house for 229,000.

You have to leave California, Perry.

I bought the screen room library from snestor, pretty cool stuff for pretty low money.

I did the same; totally agree!

MarkMc no doubt would do it with cabinets.

@MarkMcMark, your red arrow in the second pic is pointing to the "rotation" section, not the "origin offset" section. Good info BTW.

I couldn't get the link to work either.

Nice presentation from Lumion.

Would I be correct in assuming it's a pretty complex macro to get the 2nd digit to display as superscript?

Was thinking the same thing. Sure wish CA would do this OOB; wishful thinking I guess.

 I just don't understand how this would ever have gotten changed in my template file because it's never been an issue for me before.  

Gremlins!

May have to ping him, Doug, to get him to respond. @Renerabbitt

This is done in my area. Not always the best approach, but sometimes necessary to please the client. As "tinyhouseguy" posted, the water can be collected but you have to be "creative."

I would be unhappy about the total waste of money putting the wire mesh down...

Thought the same thing.

And then I'd probably change my mind after finding a reason to show it as 2 layers, and then I'd change my mind again and go back to a single layer.

That's my usual work flow.!

I thought it was the wall definitions yet today the plan that was having issues looks normal so i dont know how to explain that one.

Gremlins! They just show their ugly heads when they think you are stressed to the max! If it is any consolation, you are not alone in fighting them; I've had my share!

Nice house, Don!

Like Perry says, you can adjust settings to your liking. I was dealing with eye strain pretty bad before I changed to the 43" TV. It is much easier on the eyes due to the large screen real estate it provides.

I much prefer the 43" 4K TV in my signature to the 32" monitor I use with it. The 43" TV was about half the cost of the monitor. I have strongly considered replacing the 32" with another 43" TV and hang one from the wall with a pivot base to use for client presentations.

you shouldn't name things with a 13 in them as it seems that old superstition has come home to roost.

For sure! Remember Autocad R13? It was horrible! I was so glad when R14 came out. Maybe X14 will work well - right out of the box! I can wish can't I?

I am very close to achieving photorealism with this new PBR engine

You sure are! That looks fantastic!

Did you test that Ryan ?   It seems to have a fairly detrimental effect.

Indeed it does. If you group select them, notice the center of the group. That is where they will resize from and it gives weird results.

I try to use min. 32" for interior doors when possible. 24" only when necessary, and only for closets or pantry.

Without a plan it is hard to tell. Check if the circled roof edge extends into the siding layer of that wall. Or, open the offending wall (assuming the upper wall) and on the roof tab check "roof cuts wall at bottom." The last one may not work as it looks like it is the lower wall causing the problem. If those don't work, attach the plan; even a stripped-down version will work.

I am very pleased with my TCL 43" 4 Series 4K TV (43S425) @ 3840x2160 as my main screen/monitor.

Same here. I have the 43S415 which is the version just before the S425. Very happy with it.

My preferred method. Just wish the shadows wouldn't show up under the terrain. 

Totally agree! It just doesn't look very professional with the shadows.
