Yes.

It's hard to tell you what's going on with out looking at the plan. None of your settings are to default. It's good practice to always work with defaults where or when possible.

I have a 4'x8' trailer I made several years ago. Just for grins, I tried to build a house on top. Took me about 20 minutes to figure something out. To do it better, it would have to be done with a little more time. I guess it can be done. The house is not a symbol...only the trailer. Maybe I should say the trailer is under the house (tip).

This will probably be your best answer to make it work. It's what I do.

This happened to me several years ago and I had to pull a wall back and re-join it to fix the problem.

I don't seem to have any problems.

Be sure all your .PL0 (if a foundation is done), .PL1, .Pl2 files are in one folder. You need to open the .PL1 file to have it work. Do not just open the .PL2 file. I just went through this doing a plan for someone using V9.5.

Open the room dbx and edit the ceiling material by increasing the emissive setting to 60% or higher under the general material tab. That should help.

Haven't looked at it but remember that the attic level is not a floor level.

Thank you.

If you try it, you'll find out real fast. To answer your question, do the last.

Draw a marquee around it to block it. then you can save it to the library.

Diane, send me an email from my address below in my signature if you like and I will give you 3 hours of free training (online) to help you with any questions you may have. I'm mainly free on the weekends but sometimes during the week too.

Okay. I was doing it a different way which automatically unchecked "outlet" and "110 volts".

I have mine to where it hangs on the wall. To really make it work from the library, you have to do it a different way.

Michael, if you're wanting to save it to your library to reuse again, this way as mentioned will not work. Try it. It never has worked this way for electrical. Here is a new symbol that will work. I think I have it set right. If not, it's probably close enough. Duplex 16 inches.calibz

I have postponed it until next Monday the 8th.

We have a free online meeting Monday, Dec. 1, 2014 from 6:00pm to 8:00pm (Central Time). If you would like to attend, then please send me an email using my email address shown in my signature. Feel free to call me if you need more information or questions. This is an open meeting. Sincerely,

Maybe so Scott, but we both said the same thing.

No I'm not. That's ridiculous. I was just saying that I have already mentioned that in other words trying to explain about the old invisible wall and the new room divider.

I thought I already said this (in other words).

In all previous versions (prior to X6), all invisible walls are actually a wall type of Interior 4 made invisible by default. So, if you want an invisible wall like the previous versions, place an interior 4 wall and make it invisible. In X6, they have the room divider instead of an "invisible wall" type already made. If you use the room divider, it has no thickness, but if you change the structure one side of the room that has a room divider, then that room divider gets the same definition on the old invisible wall which is actually an interior 4 wall invisible. BTW, for doing porches, I prefer to use a railing wall (wall type).

How about displaying the auto dormer or roof plane to the attic level in plan view or floor above? If you do this, you might have to turn off the roof hole in plan view.

I have been waiting for that comment. This is why I do all my cable railing manually as well as my posts(newels). Yes it's a little time consuming to do it manually but it's the only way I can get it to do the way I want (or at least make it fairly close).
