No, I never add a foundation, again it is already there....... the foundation LEVEL is already there. I manually create my foundations, I have found it is easier for ME, others do not agree with this method, but I find it works well for me.

No, but if you post the plan, I will check it on my mac. Must first figure out if it is your mac or your file that is causing problem.

Keith, I do not understand your question. I have 4 floors for every house I do whether it is a one story or a three story. Just because the floor/LEVEL is there does not mean you have to use it. I have the extra floors for the very reason you are having problems with adding floors. I do not have to add them, they are already there....... and when I say FLOORS, I should be using the term LEVELS.

I don't know, but I do not have a problem because from day one my projects have 4 floors whether I use them or not. I am never adding floors, they are already there.

My projects are constantly changing and "under construction". So I would have to make a new symbol for every change. And let me tell you, people are finicky these days. Make it 24" bigger, now make it 12" smaller.... move the entire building 36" to the left, now move it 24" to the right (this would effect landscaping) ........you get the drift.

Nice project Jim. But I would of kept everything in one file. Works well either way, whatever floats our boat.

I agree with Glenn on this. Working a a project right now with a detached garage...... I am keeping it in the same file. The big advantage is when it comes to doing overviews, much quicker and simpler. Another advantage is dealing with the landscaping, pools, covered patios that my be linked between house and detached garage. If separate houses on separate lots in one development, then I would have separate files for each lot.

Yeah, you had your base cabs misaligned. There is a very small difference in the alignment of the faces. This is why it is so helpful to post plans to get quick answers.

I must be missing something again. Didn't we give you the answer? And if that answer does not work, why don't you post the plan?

Yep, I bet that is it. Nice call KT.

I must be missing something. I do not see the seam between 2 cabinets that are butted up against one another. Would you mind posting your plan and a pic...... here is what mine looks like

They are a bit of a nuisance.

Red rocks, awesome venue, wish I saw it, of corse I was only 6 years old back then.

It takes me 4 clicks, a chant AND a few choice words...... and then it works perfectly....... most of the time........ if there is a full moon......

Hit F8, the color will come on.

the line style of the ref set is controlled by the ref set. Change the line style via your ref set. Preferences has nothing to do with it. Do you know how to access your ref set?

Post unclear, did you figure it out?

I figured that is what you wanted, FYI, I can lock the layer in 3 clicks, SELECT OBJECT<HIT 9<CLICK LOCK LAYER, I am assuming with ACAD you can do it in two clicks, SELECT OBJECT<LOCK LAYER, if this is what you want, I get it, 2 clicks vs my 3 clicks......... I am always for quicker ways of doing things.

You deserve a point for that one.

That my friend is almost pure genius...... great solution. The only thing I might change is 1/16" left depth and and 24" right depth..... but I am quibbling...... Nice job JC, best solution I have ever seen.

Bill, how about angle cabinet 24"-3"=21" wide with a 3" deep front cabinet with no toe kick. Would that solve toe kick issue......... But I bet that creates a countertop issue in plan view....... Just thinking.....

I think I like everything about your solution except for toe kick and that can be solved with solid, thanks Bill.

Yep, I see if now. Minor problem, toe kick does not show correctly on right side at wall. So there are actually 2 cabs. You'd 1/16" deep cab and the angled front. The 1/16" cab is actually in front of angled cab and the angled cab is actually 24"-1/16" = 23-15/16" wide.

Bill, I like what I see in plan view. Nice call on 1/16" deep cab. Questions: How did you build tie kick? Psolid? What creates dashed Line for the angled cab at wall? I assume this is custom countertop?

No help here. This is the precise reason I use pmolding for the shower wall finish.
