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

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

correction, it is showing ...

Okay.  Here's the plan.  Thanks!

I created my signature, not sure why it's not showing.  I checked the box???

Hi All,

Any idea why a half wall wouldn't generate in elevations or perspectives.  The layer is set to display, height is set a 42".  baseboard appears.   i'm at a loss???

thanks

thanks!

Hi All,

Working in x9, how does one specify unequal sash, or cottage style windows?

thanks,

George

good point on the All On Layer Set ... I had some items off but still not the solution on this one.

I had not framed it and automatic generate deck framing was turned off, that fixed it, thanks!

I can't believe I'm asking this because it must be something obvious that I'm not seeing ...

My deck is not showing.  If I define the room as a bedroom, for instance, it appears with that default floor, but defined as a deck it disappears.  I tried drawing a deck off the other side of the home to test, and same deal, no deck showing.

The room is 'closed' since I can select it.

Even with 'all on set' layer, nothing.

Thanks,

George

Hello,

Is there a way to import an entire structure into and existing plan?  I would like to import a detached barn structure into a plan that is already drawn.

Thanks,

Hi All,

Is it possible to re-define, or classify a door, for instance, so that it appears on the window schedule, rather than the door schedule?

Thanks,

Thanks for the suggestions.  I'm not sure my question was posed clearly.  My hope was to be able to take an existing plan and 'place' it into my profile plan without over-writing the properties of my profile ... essentially using all my Profile set preferences and layers for the already drawn plan.  In the meantime I've simple updated what preference are most important and added the layers I needed to the existing plan and have moved on.  

Thanks and have a wonderful Holiday Season!

Hi,

I have an X9 plan drawn.  I would like to export it and then import it into my new Profile Plan, is this possible and if so, how?  I've tried what I thought were the obvious solution but seem to be only importing CAD lines ...

Thanks,

Skip

Thanks!

Hi All,

How do you create wall framing elevations???  I've done it before but cannot remember how!

Hi,

Working in X9.

Is there way to define a wall material for a room, and then remove that material from one of the walls?

In my example, I have added bead board wainscot to a bathroom, but do not want the bead board on the glass shower wall.  If I designate the shower wall as 'no room definition, then the bead board would then be inside the shower, so that doesn't work.  Also, I'll want to add tile to the shower wall w/out it being on the glass.

Any thoughts/suggestions?

thanks,

Skip

You're right, counters do have their own layer.  I meant to ask if there is a way to turn off the cabinet layer while leaving counters visible.  I'm not sure why the counter turn off even if their layer is left on????  It's a mystery.

thanks.

Skip

Hi All,

working in x9.

Is there a way to put countertops on a layer separate from cabinets?  I realize custom counters have their own layer but would like auto counters to have their own layer as well.

thanks,

Skip

Thank you very much.

Here's the plan file, thanks.

Hi All,

I can't figure this one out.  The deck blocking is visible on the exterior side of the band joist.  Ironically there is no blocking w/in the deck framing so I'm not sure why it's there in the 1st place.  I'd like to eliminate it.  Suggestions?  I've attached a file but I'm not sure it's in a usable format, let me know if not.

thanks,
