and second question. any idea how to get the generated sky to move down? edit: I think it is the edge of the terrain causing this, so I can change that

if I move it "above" the start of the generated sky

any idea why the moon is shown like this? I think the bottom gets cutoff because that is where the generated sky starts. but the top??

and after selecting via edit area, select transform and replicate and move x or y distance

on the status bar, lower right corner. if you pan tha camera you should see it restart from 0

detached garages do not require insulation as they are unheated (95% of the time)

what might that be? we frame like this, at least that is what i have seen

a gable end truss would have zero heel as it would need room for the outlookers. but it also cant have tails so what CA draws is incorrect. but in theory if I set the overhang to 0 (or close to), one could get the lowest possible height of a building by having a zero heel height

I as well, pretty much all buildings up here have an energy heel, so to me the VSD is a value I would rareley use. The exception might be for a garage to ge the minimum height. But based on the screenshot above it shows the VSD, so one can just put that number in the heel hieght. it would be nice if it warned or did something if the specified heel height was less than the VSD.

if you are using X15 there is a denoiser in the camera setup. I generally cap the live samples as 300 and set the "denoise when complete". the white dots should go away on the bottom right in the status bar you will see the samples increasing every time you move the camera. once you hit 300 (if you set it to that). it should stop and then denise

yes makes sense now that you have explained it . Thank you it was an inateresting look, the faux stucco window

hmm, i think i pulled the wall up earlier when I had the gable roof lower ... but the default wall heights are greyed out so it must be autogenerated?? if I redraw the 2nd floor wall, then there CA creates the upper and lower wall, but then the lower wall shows as not the default wall height, and then if I check it, it goes back to being a two story wall any idea how to fix it? 694 Muirfield Cr - fe.zip

any ideas why this might happen if i pull down the wall:

This is a different case. Nothing gets selected

nvm, it is trying to match the hip, otherwise the gable would go back to eternity

looks good: move the wall:

i have seen this on x14

I would think the onus is on us although setting a default is probably wise. The truss above less the overhang is actually a legitimate truss on a gable wall

You could try extracting the file from the zip file C:\ProgramData\Chief Architect Premier X15\Referenced Files and then assigning to the billboard

I have not had any issues, probably for months now, after NVDIA fixed their driver

...to avoid confusion, there is the send to layout -> Current screen as image. That is not changeable from the layout box as it is just a static image

try: open up the truss and check rebuild

good to know, thanks for the tip.

pls move this to Q&A and post the plan

This vertical black line just showed up even though I have not changed the exterior walls in a couple days Any ideas? I see these every once in awhile. and just now while I was looking I noticed the footing line was about the same place so for shts and giggles, I turned off the footing layer in plan view, went back to elevation and it is gone. tried to repeat the behaviour and I cannot. then I was in ortho view and I turned on walls, labels, and then the vertical black lines appeared on the back of the house and now I cannot get them to go away. it looks to be because of the side wall (below seems to match the lines), but why just show up at random? then I start fiddling with the wall intersection tool for the one corner, and then poof both corners vertical lines vanish unbelievable. what am I missing here?
