Does anyone have any idea how to make the Terrain perimeter lengths into decimal form and not feet and inches?

One of the best posts that I have seen come across this board and could not have come at a better time. Thanks Chopsaw, Greg and JJ. I will post shortly on what I was trying to complete, just as I saw this post. And A big Thanks to Chief Tutor although his way does not work for a symbol in wall mode. Here is the before and After... Thanks again.

I wish it was that easy. I tried that already.

I am working on a very complex remodel with several different levels on it and I am having trouble setting floor levels. In one situation, I may have changed and exterior wall height and now my interior baseboards are showing on my exterior elevations. What you are looking at is an upper level floor with a garage below and the baseboards/flooring are showing in the upper floor on the exterior elevations. For the life of me I cannot firgure it out and I know that there is a CA expert here that can help. Thanks,

Nope Graeme that's on. As I explained I currently have one section line on but the other one is not showing as I clicked on the section line and turned off show on all floors now it is not showing and I can't get it back.

I have two cross section lines A & B and I have turned off the Cross Section A in the foundation (Plan Display) and now it no longer shows on the floor plan. How do I turn it back on so it shows on the floor plan but not on the foundation plan? If is is no longer showing how do I choose it to show?

Im with you Dennis. I do a lot of pavers for clients and I just can't get the right ones. I would be nice if we had some CalSTone Pavers in our library.

Johnny, Yeah I don't want to lower my roof plane as it would not plane into the existing roof. This is not an individual occurrence it is on all the roofs I have drawn for this project. There has to be another explanation.

Once again this might be a simple fix but I can't seem to figure it out. I have my framing and i have made sure Automatic Bridsmouth is checked but when I do a backclipped cross section it is not showing my birdsmouth cut it shows it simply sitting on the outside edge of the wall like a truss would be. Any ideas? Picture attached

Yes, dont' do it. The Architectural business is no longer a glorified profession it is all about bureaucratic BS now. I have become Jaded and Angry

I know that there is a simple way but I am having trouble figuring this out. I am drawing a polyline solid on a gable wall and I want it to be parallel with the angle of the roof. How do I accomplish this, I can't find any info. Help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you all. That is exactly what the issue is. Everything time I have a exterior stone I bring it down to grade but did not realize that it brings the framing down.

Here you Go Joe. Also not sure why my plans are so large in size, maybe you can figure that one out too. Thanks lewis proposed plan.plan

In the picture I have attached it is showing that my studs and my plate in a couple of the rooms are below the top of the stem wall. All the settings appear to be the same for all the rooms. I have had this happen before but can't seem to figure it out. Please help. Thanks.

So True So True. I have dual Monitors as well as a Nvidia CArd and I crash constantly right in the middle of something important as well. I am about to upgrade my my card and hopefully fix the problem.

I bow to thee Alaskan_Son, you made your point very well, almost to well that maybe you should be working at Chief. Nice tutorial. YOU DA BOMB. I will be using some of those techniques. Here is the final rendition of what I was trying to achieve when I asked the question of how to divide an area equally. Thanks again,
