  1. I have seen some funny things with walls. You could try deleting both walls and redrawing using the handle from the left wall
  2. show in the broswer or are in the plan as a reference?. plan is below. There can be many plans in the browser. it does not mean they are linked/referenced. I keep backup copies there that are not linked to anything(other than being part of the project as an un referenced file)
  3. You need a graphics card that supports realtime ray tracing. IF you have that, then yes you will get rendering like X13, except better now
  4. Lidar on the phone is only good for ~15 ft, so exteriors do not work that I have tried I do similar workflow, but I use a photogrammery app as a back up. Which lidar app is your preference? I'm currently doing elevations from photos, and attempting to measure eave heights from ground, and then discerning a heel height and peak height. It works for "simple houses" but not those with upper roof lines which are back from the front facade. Have you found any better technique?
  5. I'm always looking for a good exterior scan option. But FARO seems like a pretty penny. I've tried a bunch of photogrammery apps, but none worked that well. Do you know of other options other than FARO
  6. you can paste screenshots directly into the comment. I cannot see your pngs. But there are two ways to have parralel walls which are right next to each other. Make the inside wall "no room definition" in its properties, or ii) make a wall that has both walls in in it. Check the help or this forum for "furred wall"
  7. @DBCooper says it is then manual. I assume then if I change a wall, I need to go do it again? If so, to avoid the rinse repeat over and over again, I'll leave it on floor 0. if it is automatic then yes floor 1 sounds like the better option
  8. Thats what I would do, split it up across pages, by sending it twice to layout, on different pages, and cropping the layout box differently on the pages to reflect the portions of the block plan
  9. I've seen this posted on the forum in the past, but I do not remember the answer (other than of course create your own). you may wish to search the forum on this one for a predone one, or scale a predone one
  10. I lose the bottom tool bar when the window changes size. A double click on the CA window title bar brings it back to properly fill the screen. This typically happens when my computer resumes from sleep mode///for some unknown reason
  11. yes. each version of CA is a seperate instance, but you should double check with CA sales
  12. I use floor 0 as well for this exact reason, If I am lazy I will copy the CAD line to floor 1 for certain terrain features, but I also have a saved plan view that references terrain items (from floor 0) to show on floor 1
  13. the other way to narrow down the offending wall is to just draw a new wall bisecting the room, and then click on either side to see if you can select a room. rinse, repeat.
  14. I assume you have ceiling planes? you could pull them back to see if the wall builds.
