  1. I can't reproduce it. It might be a problem with the defaults or preference settings.
  2. Yes, Alan is correct. Interestingly I just pulled out a permit set for a log home in Big Bear California which was done on (10 ) 12"x18" sheets in 2024. Today it couldn't be done in less than (25) 24"x36" sheets. Just 3 years ago I could design and get approval of a Septic System. Today a licensed PE is required. Some cities are requiring a Civil Engineer for a grading permit for over 50 yds cut and fill. California is not a dream !!!
  3. A corner cabinet typically is made with 2 doors attaced to each other opening in one direction. with a lazy susan inside. Having the doors that way makes it easier to access the contents.
  4. I would use a Wall Type with a single Layer (basically invisible. ie:Air Gap) Then I would: place the Concrete Columns break the walls and change sections to masonry as needed.
  5. Joe, where can i find a list of macros you have for sale?

    Merry Christmas.

  6. In the Arrow Defaults try selecting: Attach Tail to Other Objects Auto Position Head (might not be necessary) Attache Head to Other Ojects
  7. I would use the Window Snipping Tool to create the picture.
  8. Make sure you only have one Wall Schedule. The easiest way to do this is to put the Schedule in a CAD Detail and just send that to Layout. I generally don't put the Schedules in the actual view unless it's specific to only that view.
  9. I use a similar method. But I've stored my notes as Rich Text in my user Library. They are in folders by material type.so it's easy to find what I want and locate and add an arrow to point to the object. One of those Library notes actually retrieves the Object's Label - if it's cut in section like a framing member, etc.
  10. Edit the Room's Ceiling Finish to provide an Air Gap and Framing.
  11. I have mine on automatic pay. It avoids this sort of problem and you can still cancel at any time in the future.
  12. Primarily because Chief is much more flexible. That of course makes it more difficult to set up to do what you want.
  13. If you name your SPV's in the Porject Browser the they can easily be labeled in Layout using built-in macros. I never Label in Plan Views, only in Layout Boxes.
  14. Make: Floor Level 0 = Foundation Plan Floor Level 1 = Basement Plan Floor Level 2 = First/Main Floor Plan Floor Level 3 = Second Floor Plan Floor Level 4 = Attic Plan (typically only a 1/16 " ceiling height) it's just a matter of the name. The advantage is that you have completely separate Foundation & Attic Plans
  15. Yes, just open that file and save as (append the date to the name). That way you can always know what version you are using.
