Thanks Ken, I could not for the life of me remember that tool.

The only way to do it! I have been using all caps since high school 30 years ago and that is the way I have always done it. Unless I have some notes I will sometimes use the lower case but for the most part I set up my template to be consistent and only caps.

Ok guys, I know there is a way to do it and I can't keep spending time trying to find it so I am hoping that someone can help me figure this out. I am trying to do a coffered ceiling and I want the grid to be equal boxes. the way I usually do it in AutoCAd is take a line and divide that line equally to fin the centers of m beam. How can I divide a line into 4 part or distribute a line along a line. I have tried align/distribute but when I pick the line it does not give me the capability to distribute along the line just align...

Shadows in Elevations! Huge improvement to making it look more like an Architectural set of plans. I guess the competition to Sketchup is keep up or get out. Watch out Chief as Google might try and snap you up to keep you out of the business.

Thank you all for your positive comments and I agree this is one nice beg upgrade just for this feature alone but there are many more and I hope they keep getting better. As for my settings, it is pretty easy as I send my views off with only Vector view, no color and just play with the adjust Sunlight angles until you like what you see. I keep the intensity at 100% but adujst the Tilt and Direction until I feel it looks like what I am trying to capture.

I love the new shadow featture in x8 it gives my drawings that much more of a punch that I was missing. I used to have a block in AutoCAD that I would bring in to add that just to give it more of a Architectural Hand drawing that all CAD programs seem to leave out. Every thing helps as each program evolves. Now if I could just ask CA to outline all my Elevations to emphasize it that much more. One other thing that I wish Chief would get rid of is all those damn Arrows and simplify it down to only a few and add a nice thick line Architectural Tic arrow. Sadowski elevations.pdf

Birdsmouth Cut To Match Existing On Framing
cjanderson66 replied to cjanderson66's topic in General Q & A
Seriously Justin maybe it is possible that you have been lifting way to many heavy things and don't understand the actual question as well not understanding the visual presentation of the PDF. We are all talking about the eliminating the small vaulted portion of the ceiling as to have a longer seat cut to the rafter and nothing to do with the tail of the rafter. Raising the ceiling height does not fix the issue of the the wall height nor eliminating the small vaulted portion. (Just sayin ) -

Yes but Is there a way to raise the wall height to match the bottom of the ceiling joists so it shows correctly? Thanks by the way. -
