Hi Rene, I thought about that...... but I was not sure it was going to come out this year........ hmmm.... maybe I should cancel it....

good vids Rene, thanks

A timely thread for me. I have the MacBook Pro on order. I should have it in a week. I will be interested in the speed issues... But I do need an external monitor..... - 27" min........ -4k or 54k? Does anybody have a suggestion for an external monitor????

Robert is correct... not perhaps but absolutely use the ref layer set method.

I give away the DXF files of the plan all the time. Not a big deal to me. Just a courtesy. I do not guarantee the accuracy.

I did some great curved cabinet videos back in the day but I cannot find them now. I would create the shape of cabinet in plan view via cad lines and arcs, using the info from the curved lines , I could then shape the cabinet. The real key is being able to define the BOW DEPTH via the CAD layout. If I remember correctly, I could do just about anything I wanted.

Hi Don, Thanks for this. I will pass it on.

They have CA, but they do cabinets in 20/20. I draw the plans in CA and then they need to draw in 20/20 to do their cabinets. so stupid that 20/20 cannot import DXF.

I sent them in yet DXF file. I just want to know if a 2020 user can import a DXF file. I am not sure my clients are savvy enough to understand it. I can’t believe it’s not possible to import a DXF file in 2020. I did look on the Internet and it wasn’t very clear on whether you could import a DXF file in 2020. just trying to get clarification from somebody that knows.

I did send them a file. I don’t think I know how to do it. I just wanted to make sure it was possible.

Hi All, Can a client using 20/20 import a CA DXF file? thank you!

Turn off auto build foundation. Build the foundations manually.

For the fun of it, drag your terrain break through the wall into that void space since and see what you get

Right click, you should get the sub menu and then you’ll see the simplified polyline tool

I would do as RGARDNER suggests, do tot check box for retaining wall.

I forgot 2ho made these garage doors, but I am very appreciative... attached is the library garage doors by a generoius CA user.calibz

To date I have always included multiple structures in one plan file..... Houses, ADU's, detached garages...... If it was an apartment project I may consider separate plan files....... I never convert garages or ADU's to symbols...... for whatever reason, my projects are ever changing. I had a project with a detached garage, an ADU and a House, and a Swimming Pool all oriented at different angles.... I put them all in same plan file...... this made it easier to see the relationship between all structures around pool. I suppose you could use ref sets but editing between plans seems to be more difficult. Different strokes for different folks

that worked, but if you then break in half because the footing at garage is 12" wide and the other 15" wide, the problem comes back. Being out here on the west coast with the rest of the nuts, we do not do the brick ledge so I had not noticed the issue.

Hi Steve, I took a look at it and could not fix it. Please send it in. Thx

Yep, and then to finish off underside of wall a ceiling plane will work. No perfect solution. pick your poison.

THIANK YOU CHRIS B.!!!!!

My mistake..... do not use a doorway.... use a pass thru window.... I believe I have requested the ability to shape a door.....

Put a typical wall in and the put in a doorway or window no sash the shape of the opening (angled top)

Hi Rene, suppose the wall at left aide of pit sits on pit floor (as shown), BUT..... suppose the wall on right side of pit sits at on main slab? Can you do this auto?
