Here is a plan with a lot of valances, maybe one of these will work for you. bbb valances 1.plan

I bet there are some invisible walls that are causing the break in siding. I wonder how many posts it will take to solve this. I am betting we get to number 13 without an answer. This is number 4.

I seriously doubt that

Steven, here is a pretty good vid that might help. https://youtu.be/2uNJhGGk94g

Good stuff Michael, it's only taken 10 years to take care of this, mucho appreciato. BTW, I tried several years ago but I could not figure it out, props to you.

You know the lunch invitation is always open to you. It would be super to see and talk to you again. I will see you when you are in town. Case has been reopened.

I agree, thank you Michael for your work. They work great in most conditions with the exception of a CABINET PANEL that is not "recessed" Need to move out manually, but I get this is tough to program. Thanks again Michael and thanks Dermot for telling me they show in the CABINET OUTLETS USER LIBRARY. I had a hard time finding them. Case closed.

Appreciate the effort Randy, see plan for comments, your method is workable, but not the norm. And I do not understand why the outlets do not "SNAP" to cabinets, I need to rotate and futz with it.

Well I promise if I figure it out, I will post a plan with the symbol to save everybody else from having to adjust it in the library.

Give it a try Michael, maybe you can figure it out.

I am having the same problem. I cannot change the default post. roof beam and floor beam sizes. I think this is a bug, please report it.

Thanks Michael, but I could not find them when imported. Cn you put them in small plan, easier for me to look at them.

Rafters do not work with joist direction tool. Rafters always run perpendicular to slope. If you want to change the rafter direction, make the rafter spacing at 4.65 miles on center, and then draw the manual rafters. Not perfect, but should take only a minute or 2.

Use the joist direction tool.

David, would it be possible for you to post a small plan with an electric outlet in the island? If you were able to do this, it would end 10 years of frustration.

I too would appreciate if someone could post a small plan showing an electrical outlet in an island that looks good in plan view and in 3d view.

Hey Yusuf, can you post that plan? It looks like you did a real good job with the railings. I would like to study your plan.

I swear, he always comes up with these hidden gems.

agreed, good point, however, even if I hold railing back, it is difficult to make it look good.

okay, it is not Gavin's request, so now it is my request, why can't I build it so it looks good? Suppose I add a newel at the corner, will that help? Seriously, this is the kind of stuff the users have been complaining about for eons now when it comes to modeling stairs. If we can't make it look good, let's say so.

I hate to be a poo poo head, but there must be an easier way to organize the railing specs. It seems as if I spend an inordinate amount of time clicking boxes to try to figure out the railings..... there must be a more user friendly layout for this.... think Steve Jobs....

Here is the plan, maybe you can fix it. bbb gavin dennis stairs 1.plan

Mea culpa, I learn something new everyday, thank you, however, I am not sure we have been able to meet Gavin Dennis Gavin's req's. Maybe I should say, I can not do it.

Thanks Michael, nice, however, I can not make it look good with a landing configuration.

Nope, he wants the concrete to go up to the underside of floor sheathing with a sill plate. Please review his detail. It is a tough condition to model.
