  1. Manually unless you find a door in one of the libraries that has hardware already included.
  2. Did you draw ceiling planes and uncheck this box?
  3. You're overthinking this..just draw with concrete exterior walls and turn off everything else. It could be on level 40 for all you care anyway, so just draw the room.
  4. You're not going to get Chief to create that detail. A workaround would be a second roof plane for the overhangs. Model it close and detail the rest out.
  5. No renders in preliminary, only 3D is presented in clay or hand sketch style so that we don't get hung up on color or finish. Just form and function in preliminary. The other stuff comes later.
  6. Yes. The IDs that work in my office go to the 3D warehouse all the time to get furniture and various pieces. You can simply drag and drop from Sketchup directly into a plan you are working on to save time.
  7. Yes. No tutorials that I know of but it's as easy as installing Dropbox and using it as a drive. All my client files, plan file, and layout files are saved in there.
  8. Not true. Leave auto Roofs on and select the wall(s) on the back side and set the pitch there. Break the wall into 3rds so that you can adjust accordingly.
  9. Been using Dropbox for at least a decade, no issues at all.
  10. You can renumber, or simply grab the rows and drag them where you want them to display in the schedule.
  11. Assembling pages shouldn't take anytime at all, all the work is done in the plan file.
  12. Shane Kitchen in Michigan has done a couple large round roofs complete with truss layout. Don't remember his username.
  13. I have been working in the industry since the late 80's early 90's, right side vertically is the standard. When rolled, you should be able to find all relevant information from the title block without needing to unroll.
