Yes! I created a duplicate shingle material so I could fiddle with the material on the flare independent of the wall.
-
I do that as a molding polyline with multiple profiles. Make sure the profile of the flare is a closed polyline.

Hi Lori, I'm in Portland. I've been using CA since 2007. Happy to connect if the opportunity arises!

You can change this on the structure tab of the room specification doalog

I've seen this behavior as well.

I send my engineer dwg exports from Chief. It's been seamless. No complaints from them. I learning Revit right now. (Just for fun. I have no plans to switch.) Maybe I'd like it more if I had as much time invested in Revit as I do in Chief but my honest evaluation is it sucks! Every lesson makes me grateful I use CA.

I use 300 dpi and use the compress option on this site (https://www.ilovepdf.com/) if the file is still too large.

Concentric scaling of camera view sent to layout

If you open the dbx for the image you can set the size precisely while retaining the aspect ratio. -
You could use a "Polyline Distribution Path" Still a bit manual, but at least you're not placing each one. Might have to locate the ones along the rake individually however...

Angled wall meeting a straight wall creates a point
kMoquin replied to StephenM's topic in General Q & A
OK, just reverse engineered my solution. I broke it after the angled wall was drawn. I also ran the extension long and then shortened it to 4" after the break and "Reverse Layers" -
Angled wall meeting a straight wall creates a point
kMoquin replied to StephenM's topic in General Q & A
It took some secret handshake voodoo, but I was able to make it work with 4" & 6" walls you need to break the 6" wall and "Reverse Layers" for one of the segments. Notice how the edit handles show up on the opposite side of the 6" wall below. -
Cross section of a 3D solid doesn't show outline of the object
kMoquin replied to Larry_Sweeney's topic in General Q & A
Larry, Are you sure the layer is on? 3D solid outlines show in sections for me. -
There is not a merge option that I know of for wall types. What you can do to sort them is to choose one of them and change the fill of the main layer to a bright color. Then look at the plan to see where that color appears. Change those walls to the type you wish to keep and delete the other.
