  1. I agree with all the sentiments regarding letting the truss manufactuer use their expertise.  Im just trying to chase out a minor anomoly and make sure all is in alignment to the best of my ability and nothing is missed.  Im comparing notes with the Grandview Sample house and i have some questions and short of speaking with Scott Harris I am trying to find a resident expert on Chief Talk.

  2. Hello are there any truss experts on Chief Talk today?  I'm trying to build a roof with mild complexity using trusses for the first time.  Two issues that I am trying to work through.  When I pull "multiple-copy" sometimes the auto feature is setting the truss to something other than the prescribed distance between, likely from some information below the truss and the other issue is the ceiling issue, see screenshot...

     

    So two questions?  1. What would cause the truss to build outside the prescribed distance between the trusses on a multi copy instruction and what is the beginning fix for this error message?

  3. It was definitely something related to one camera view and a second monitor plugged into the laptop via HDMI.  The strange thing was closing down the file resulted in the entire menu bar disappearing so that the only next option was to close and reopen the program.  To the degree that I am now able to help the community in some way if this is a known problem might we label and number these issues in a type of community "case number" to help CA diagnose the issue?  Just typing out loud here.  I'm running windows 10 btw, and will change that in my profile.

     

     

  4. Hello all,

    I'm trying to do some work from home on my laptop with x14, after I open a camera view my main menu bar disappears.  I've not encountered this issue before.  Is there a previous thread or solution that someone might point me towards?

  5. @DB, yes, my understanding is that the only way to get a larger bottom rail is to use a door and not a window.  

     

    @robdyck - ...so just create a solid and place it over the existing threshold?
