  1. You need to make a copy of that material and give it a different name, then adjust it.
  2. Or the soffit or P-solid tool to create the courses. Might give you more flexibility than a molding.
  3. Cut and paste it in the attic wall above. I note vents when I don't want them to show.
  4. They are up a level? Just guessing without a plan file.
  5. Leave the bottom flat and let the arched transom and molding from below give the arched look. Use custom muntins to further give the illusion of the arched bottom.
  6. The are probably in a gable ATTIC wall and the WALLS, ATTIC layer is not displayed.
  7. Unfortunately no. You can adjust a normal truss and make it a symbol I believe and add it to your library for later use.
  8. When I select the actual callout, it's different than the note schedule. You need to fix the individual callouts.
  9. Click the current page button and all the other pages go away.
  10. Sounds like you're using the wall elevation camera and not the cross section camera.
  11. Also...when sending an elevation or section to layout, you don't have to use the edge and pattern settings. Leave them unchecked and your layer set and material definition settings will rule.
  12. Whatever fill you assign in plan view will be displayed in cross section using the AUTO DETAIL tool.
  13. Painted door trick wont help with con docs...still gonna need to make that door or draw a 2D version in CAD.
  14. Just a marquis select process. Using CAD from VIEW is not a tool I use for sections and elevations. I can count on one hand how many times I have used that tool in the past 2 years, and those time would have been for a remodel/addition floor plan. Hold down the shift key while dragging all the lines in. For the lines that are really close to other...if you look close I probably didn't bother with those.
  15. Nope. I don't use view to cad. If the section or elevation changes I would have to redo the line work, so only the final CDs get that treatment.
  16. I simply used the edit tool in layout and SHIFT SELECTED all the lines I wanted to be light and gray and changed them to that.
  17. Take a back-clipped cross section, set the position, and then select the 3D Camera from the options, or ha e a 3D Anno & Layer Set.
  18. OK, so next step would be to check the roof planes themselves. Did you trim back the main roof plane and join it with the shed roof? It appears the fascia and/or sub fascia setting of the main roof plan is cutting the shed roof rafter. Post the plan and I'll have a look, or try cutting that main roof plane back. You can still have the overhangs that stick down, but the main sections need to meet at that intersection.
  19. There is most likely an invisible "attic" wall up there causing the issue. And FWIW..that's the depth of the rafter.
  20. You won't need to adjust the wall, simply cut the lower roof plane back and add the upper shed roof and the wall will extend up the meet it. Pretty easy to accomplish these. I also would call that a shed dormer.
