    para-CAD's post in Layout loses associatated CAD files when downloading from Dropbox to a different Computer. was marked as the answer   
    I have found, and was educated by someone smarter in chief than me, that you have to hit SAVE first on your files that you want to later SAVE AS. 
     
    this exact thing happened when someone I was helping thought we should have a backup copy to the plan so we hit save as. This was all done locally on his machine and not in dropbox. He lost quite a bit of time and work. The solution would’ve been to hit save on the original files to make them updated, and then save as and you would have two identical copies at the same work state.

    para-CAD's post in Adding General Notes Schedule for Second Floor... was marked as the answer   
    I have more than 2 schedules often.......no issues like 1,1 or whatever.  I just create a new Note type.  I don't know if this helps or is even the best way, but it works for me.

    para-CAD's post in .dwg file not displaying properly was marked as the answer   
    I’ve never tried importing DWG to the layout file.
    I typically import it to a blank plan file and try to work with it there.
    Now you have me curious if I’ve been doing it wrong all these years

    I just opened your plan.  Are you allowed to use 2x6 floor joists in your AO?
    Chief adds joists under parallel walls above.....just like written in the IRC.
