  1. Looks to be a SMEG knock off or software company generic branding and mirrored cause they did not have a left hinge model. Washer and dryer are the same problem.
  2. Yes it sounds to me like this will be your best option but it is one of the more advanced tools in the program. I don't think the curved wall section is going to be of any use to you so use it to create a polyline solid in plan view and then delete the wall. The polyline solid could be independent from the masonry fill section or just be one block depending on how you want it to display. Convert that or those polyline solids to solids. Then go to an elevation view and draw a polyline solid arch to match the garage door. Convert the arch to a solid. Select the one solid and subtract the other to create the opening.
  3. Is this an existing situation or proposed ? I believe you can put a doorway into a curved wall. Did you try that ? Is the hatched section solid masonry ? If you need it to be aligned with the garage wall you may need to use polyline solids and solid subtraction to cut out the archway.
  4. Haroon, I think it may just be a fluke that it worked this time. I can't really explain it or fully understand it but it is likely the same reason that the division worked for me and not you and then the multiplication failed for me and not for you. If you go back and take a look at my corrected formula, I think that is what you will need to use for consistent results. I also showed how to correctly do the rounding you are now asking for.
  5. It might be worth having a discussion with the neighbors. They might be happy the road is going to see some improvements. A 20 minute helicopter ride may be an option.... Or check with the truss supplier and they may be able to supply the engineering for I joists if they sell those as well.
  6. Give it a try with the same formatting as I used for the multiplication and see if that works. Otherwise I would need to look at your setup or hope one of the macro gurus can spot the issue.
  7. Hummm.... I am not sure what is going on as it seems to work for me in X12. You may need to post a test plan. Actually the division works but the multiplication seems to be creating an issue. Had to tweak the multiplication to get it to work without interference from the measurement class. axb=%($a.to_f*$b.to_f).round%
  8. @mkennedy2000 You can also stash quite a few notes and other things beyond the margin in layout and not worry about them printing or even what layer they are on.
  9. You may need to confirm what version you are using and a little more about the exact values you are dividing. "/ " Is the correct format for division in Ruby but it needs to be the correct data you are dividing.
  10. I have seen it done in Lumion quite effectively but you are looking at a lot of hours to get it right and make it worthwhile.
  11. Yes absolutely. Just Copy to User Catalog and modify the name and anything else you want.
  12. The soffit actually should follow the Sub Fascia but it seems there is something wrong as your settings should be working. Did you change something without reframing ?
  13. If this one would work for you it is available from Chief... Bathroom Fixtures No.5 Commercial https://www.chiefarchitect.com/3d-library/index.php?r=site/detail/1122
  14. Sounds like you need to jump into your Terrain Configuration toolbar and choose a tool there that fits the situation you are trying to create such as a driveway or some other terrain feature.
  15. Interesting. You might be correct as I did not rush to update all my catalogues with x15. Sad that the symbol has been down graded if that is in fact what happened. Give this one a try: Old Diagonal Brace Door.calibz
  16. Yes it can be painted or go to the materials tab of the door.
  17. Actually Chief has one that might work in the "Doors No. 1 Sliding Barn" Bonus Catalog.
  18. Yes maybe not quite as easy as Sketchup but using all the cad tools and or moldings etc. to create it in 3D.
  19. Yes build the doors in chief and apply the different materials prior to creating the door symbol and then they can continue to be adjusted independently.
  20. I think that is a common problem when using two devices with different screen resolutions. You should be able to search the answer here on the forum as others have experienced it as well even though I have not. If I recall the solution is to simply multi select your text boxes and then open and reclose them which should fix the issue.
  21. No setting for that sorry. It could be a keyboard issue or perhaps you are bumping into something on the left ? Check the up and down keys to see if they are ok.
  22. Yes you can cut a cross section and crop out what you want to show and even auto detail it and have it live. Or you can create an editable cad detail from view for a more traditional black and white detail with cad tools.
  23. Hi Ben, Is that something that has changed in one of the more recent versions ? Also how would the 1/300 in. correspond to an actual line weight # using the default Drawing Sheet Setup of 1/100 mm ?
