Hi Gary, I tried this on a 2x4 wall and got the same results. I'm thinking it has to do with wall framing, and that makes sense. When I change that wall to a 2x6, the niche filled in, except at the bottom corners (1 and 2 attached). However, when I continued either wall in the plan view, the whole box did fill in (3 and 4 attached) .

Hi Gerald, Please see the very quick vid wo sound. I don't know what version your running, but this vid was using X16 Basically, go to the roof build pull down and select Tray Ceiling Polyline From there, draw your shape. Once that is determined, pick the outer "box" of that trey and the dbx will pop up. You can set this trey to be vertical or at a pitch (degree). I hope this helps. Recording 2025-12-05 175408.mp4 -
I made it a symbol, then once its in your user library you can rotate it. See the attached. make a symbol open symbol and rotate on the X axis don't forget to make it a 2D block Recording 2025-12-04 205110.mp4

Am I expecting too much on upgrading my NVIDIA card?
mtldesigns replied to JuanR2's topic in General Q & A
No. 500 sample passes take about 20 to 30 seconds. The one attached took 25 seconds and that's with all the light on. Maybe someone on here can explain computers better. Try ChatGPT and ask "how can I make NVIDIA RTX 5070 8GB, Intel i9 32 GB Ram go faster" . I just did, tons of suggestions. -
@rlackore Thanks Robert... never crossed my mind to just drag the handles. The other way you mentioned worked great as well.

Were these over areas that didn't have a ceiling heights? Guessing here..

I have two dimensions to a point, both are CLs, however I only want one CL symbol to show for good drafting practices. They both are centerline line types, but when I uncheck "Mark C.L." in the dbx, it changes the line type to a solid. How can I keep it as a centerline LT and not have the symbol?

Great suggestion and has been mentioned like Gene says. But def. a plus one here. I'd like more controls over the landing also, esp. the framing as mentioned, flooring on anther suggestion.

Your welcome Michael. Glad I could help.

Actually, two things. Your lines are not connected AND the one side is at 0" See vid Recording 2025-11-19 203634.mp4

check one of your elevation lines is 0. See if that helps

How do I remove a frieze from only part of a wall on the same roof plane? I thought I could do like we can with gutters, but does not appear to be the case. Thanks,

Hey Jonathan, I didn't open up the model, but I am curious on why there is a room divider at this location?

Trusses Penetrating Roof Planes, But Not?

Yes I did, as recent as two weeks ago. Could not figure out the for the world why either. But I was using X16 on that model, so... -
Crosshairs being left behind from Dimensioning
mtldesigns replied to DJSSDB's topic in General Q & A
Not a fan of these myself because your dimensioning to the point and not the object, but as mentioned above you can reduce the size so its not to obvious. Here is a video on how to reduce the size of the crosshairs. crosshair reduction.mp4
