    Move your elevation region UNDER THE WALL BY ABOUT 3 inches, that should take care of irregularities.
  2. dshall
    Yeah, move the roof back and away from the wall.

    Good stuff P., but it would be nice if you started from the beginning to show how you set up the tool in your tool bar and how you reduced the size of the plant. I understand that you did this months ago and you have forgotten how to do it... this is something I face all the time when doing vids, but it would be helpful to those who do not know how to do it and I always take it as a challenge to go back and figure out how I did it initially.

    BTW, I understand this is not what you want, the point is I do not think you are doing anything wrong, but it must be something within CA that has some restrictions on the height at end of the truss.
  5. dshall
    I cannot explain why, but if you open your plan and DROP THE ROOF PLANES down 12", you should be able to get your attic truss.

    Elevation lines do not need to be broken. If you use an elevation region, that elevation region will override the elevation lines.... much quicker

    Who cares. It looks great right now. Nice job Greg.

    I wonder if X8 will fix this for you.

    I hate to be your English teacher, but I think you meant "you're" I think you and Perry had the same English teacher.... or you are both using DRAGON with auto spell. I am just buying your ba**s.

    Pretty nice Justin, you forgot to mention you are also using a cross section slider

    The plan you posted has no retaining wall

    Because you did not click your heels together 3 times and say 11 hail Mary's.

    Come on Alan, the 3rd monitor is for Judge Judy......

    You should always post plan to get a quicker ACCURATE answer, but I would bet if you opened the cabinet and CHANGED THE DEPTH OF THE SHELVES, you will no longer have the problem. Probably a change in depth of less than 1/2" will fix it for you.

    Incorrect...... it is possible...... the ceiling plane is flat .... you are not following the issue.....

    I do not think there is a better solution other that what Perry suggested which is to live with it but turn off rafters for 3d views. I played with predefining the birds mouth... a no go..... I tried using a thicker wall to get the auto birds mouth, lock roof framing, change thicker wall to thinner wall... another no go.... I have no solution, I played with this a long time ago and I could not reach a solution. Glenn, where fore art thou?

    Join the X8 BETA program.

    I think you can open the roof plane and change the birds mouth depth and width. Keep in mind you will need two roof planes, one for the 2x6 and one for the 2x8

    I think a 15' x 17' master is ideal for that house. 14' x 16' is not that far off..... it also depends on how much wall space you have. But I could live in that size m. bed and I think the closet is a nice size to for that size house...... everything can always be bigger. Good looking house.

    7' x 5' = errrrrrr 35 s.f., not 45 s.f., hey P., I caught Joe making a mistake.
  21. dshall
    I agree with Dennis, maybe 5'-4" wide minimum, 6' is better, 7' wide is ideal. Make it as deep as you want. If you want to keep a 747 inside the closet, a 10' x 12' closet would be apropos.
  22. dshall
    Dennis, why don't you become a BETA TESTER?
  23. dshall
    Hire a pro.

    How is this helpful, maybe for a well, a sunken exterior spa, a pool..... there must be more useful functions of this... if I thought some more, I could probably think of some.

    Thanks D, I thought there was someway to embed the hole in the symbol. Muy bien and gracias.
