Hello, For some reason I cannot 'un-display' my manual dimensions in other layer sets? They appear whether checked or not??? They're not locked. Any ideas?? Thanks, George X12 Alkhamis - 1.4.zip

Thank you Gene, this was my suspicion.

Hi, Is there a way to have a saved material list update when changes to the model are made? My experience with material lists, albeit very limited since I usually give up on it, is that it's a static list from when it's created, not dynamic. Is this correct or am I missing something? Thank you! George Continuously upgrading versions about 2.0, currently X12

This is an issue that occasionally pops up for me but I can never figure out why. Why is it that my exterior siding (in this case shingles) is not showing consistently? It appears on the back but not on the side. They are the same wall type and exteriors are both facing out. thanks Bernardo 1.0.plan

Edit active camera as it appeared in the X11 drop down. But thanks for your image; i just found that in preferences. thanks! Skip

I don't see it. I used it a lot in X11 but can't find it in 12. Mystery to me.

Hi - Recently downloaded X12. Changing or removing backdrops in 3d camera's seems to have moved / disappeared? any ideas? thanks, George

Eric thanks for the video, but, for some reason my 'Define Material DBX looks different. I'm in X10 and this is what I see: There is no 'materials list' option. Any ideas???

okay, thanks. appreciated.

it's late here on the East Coast and i'm a bit tired so may be missing something obvious. but I cant' figure out where I 'define' the material in question.

Sorry, I don't understand. Could you expand on this please? thanks

Hi All, Is there a way to designate a wall NOT to report its framing to the material list? My objective is to create a material list that does not include existing elements in a remodel/addition project. thanks, George X10

Alaskan Son - THANKS! Those are great! appreciated

I too don't return any results when typing in Pool Table, Billiard, or anything else. Gene, I had no idea about Billiard, Pool Table or other characteristics of this game. I did find a result with the Chopsaw's suggestion of 3d Warehouse and was able to download something even though I don't use Sketchup, unfortunately the one I chose has some strange polyline solid adjacent to the item that I haven't been able to get rid of. Need to choose a different one I suppose. Strange about the CA X10 library, some seem to have it, some don't?? thanks to all. Skip

Hi All, Does anyone have, or know where I can find, a billiard table as a 3d object? thanks, Skip

Hi All, I am sending cross sections views to layout. Is it possible to define the layout label as the 'callout label' , rather than relying on the label tab in the Cross Section Specification dialog box. I guess what I'm trying to as is why is there both a 'callout label, and a regular label? If I'm still totally confusing you ... sorry ... but my point is that i'd like the label that is generated INSIDE the callout itself to follow as the label on the layout sheet, without changing the layout label manually. thanks, George

Outstanding information, thank you! I had the obvious stuff already tried, but the plan check ideas fixed it, except for the basement level, which was fixed by the macro suggestion. thank you

Sorry, posted before ready Living area no showing ... Option in preference is checked. Even in 'All On' Layer with all items checked to show, still doesn't appear?? Thanks, George

Hi All, Why might my living area label not be showing?

Hi Eric, That worked but i'm not sure why. I've always set my attic rough ceilings at 1 1/2", and unchecked 'ceiling over this room', and haven't had this issue. At any rate, thanks, i appreciate it. Best, George

Hi All, I cannot figure out why my plan is showing sheathing on the 2nd floor of the front dormers, rather than the siding. I cannot determine a rhyme or reason for it. In one instance about a half hour ago, i reversed the layers so that in plan view the exterior was showing on the interior but in camera it siding showed on the exterior ... really weird. Anyway, any thoughts would be great appreciated. Thanks, George Kirby 2.0.zip

Duh. I actually did that ... but didn't realize my 'All On' layer had some things turned off. my bad. thanks.
