  1. I PM'd you a dropbox link for the plan file. I hope it helps It's X17.......your sig block says X16.......that might be an issue. I didn't exactly match....like eyebrow roofs and the low pitched roofs were a guess. What a wild design. Good design always thinks roof as the walls are being placed. Best of luck with this one.
  2. I don’t think I can get the roof to match the elevations 100% so I wouldn’t charge you anything. I look at it as a chief architect and bad Design challenge. If I can get something close, you might be able to be successful with it. Sometimes we just have to help each other out.
  3. We framed them in Harris and Montgomery counties as sloped treys or just trey ceilings.
  4. I need wall heights and corresponding pitches or there are too many variables.
  5. I don’t think the attic ever has a floor. I’m pretty sure you could just add another floor to your model and make it very shallow like 3/4 of an inch or something so that you could actually have a floor system in your attic. I’m not in front of a computer so I can’t verify that this might work
  6. Use temporary dims to actually move walls to the right location....dimensionally. Make time to do things right......don't set the framers up for headaches.
  7. YESSSS!!! Thank you both for reminding me of the all-caps thing. All my plan text is ALL CAPS Arial. I guess I could start doing sentence case and then select all and press the Aa button. Thanks again, gents.
  8. It's never worked for me since 2015. Is it a mac setting?
  9. I open the layout and whatever sheet I need to complete work on, I double click that viewport and it takes me to the proper saved Plainview. Once I’m complete with that I close that tab and go back to layout to work on another sheet. I’ve never worked in programming so I can only imagine how complicated and how much risk exposure happens every time you modify the code to do one thing it may end up breaking several other things. I still think chief is probably the best construction document creator that I’ve experienced so far.
  10. Only $49 US gets you a lifetime StreamDeck mobile license. If it's buttons you want.....the mobile license works on a tablet and gives you 64 buttons. In split screen, you double that to 128 buttons.
  11. If you want to try Stream Deck for the least $$ first, their mobile device app is free and allows you to use a couple buttons. Repurpose an old phone or tablet and get the app. Then its a one time lifetime license, $49. The lifetime license mobile license gives you 64 buttons per screen on an iPad tablet, (or 128 in split screen)
  12. Yoda sells a whole Chief StreamDeck system. I lean on StreamDeck for speed 13 mins in gets good
  13. Barry Connolly - First Line Design. He's in King County I'm not local but across the sound in Kitsap County
  14. You might need to check the furred wall box in the 2x4 wall so it can exist close to your conc. wall. Your zipped file only contains the layout file....which is blank.
