    Those are generally created with a template from the publisher. Making them in Chief is easy enough using a layout sheet. Just set up an 8.5"x11" layout page and put the info on it.

    Have I missed an update or patch? What's with the tick marks all over my CAD details?
  3. joey_martin
    What's your budget? I would love to design you something.
  4. joey_martin
    It's a PITA. You will need to do some manual cleanup of the sections and elevations.
  5. joey_martin
    So frustrating..

    Manually unless you find a door in one of the libraries that has hardware already included.

    Did you draw ceiling planes and uncheck this box?
  8. joey_martin
    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.

    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.

    Remove fascia and sub-fascia and add these as rafter tails.

    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.

    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.
  13. joey_martin
    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.

    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.

    Been using Dropbox for at least a decade, no issues at all.
