Rich text boxes will occasionally do that even if auto height is checked. IF auto height is checked, a click-close or a nudged left-right should cause it to correct itself.

That's a very good question! The typed value will be applied although the value displayed will appear as a rounded fraction. You should be able to test by typing in the various values and seeing the effect in the preview. However, when I'm making adjustments to small values (like in a layout file) I will press the 'Number Style' button at the bottom left and switch to decimal inches.

The previous 2 responses are correct. When the callout is 0.35" or smaller, that problem is triggered. It must be 0.36" or larger (according to my testing).

There's no default setting that will omit the end stud. I'd let auto framing do it's thing until you get to a stage that some manual framing cleanup won't have to be continuously redone. And, if the walls are finalized, you can leave auto-framing on for the roof so that you can edit wall framing while still adjusting the roof and roof framing defaults.

@Matt_S Great! If you wanted to, you can also add leading / trailing zeroes to that marker. You can do this in defaults, or just double-click and adjust there.

@Matt_S To notify someone, type the username with the @symbols first. In the Plan Defaults, try changing the 'zero' to -11 1/2". Windows Snipping Tool has some basic markup tools at the top of the view after you take a screenshot.

There may be a bug relating to some types of decks. I encountered something similar this weekend on a project that hasn't had that problem before. 2 decks, one on the front, one in the back. Auto-building only worked on one of them after this most recent update. Exact same room definitions. I haven't reported it and I could be wrong about the cause.

In plan view on the Attic level, All you need to do there is grab the corner handle of the adjacent wall and drag a perpendicular section to connect them. Select the new wall and use the align tool to make sure it aligns with the wall below.

Hi Jonathan! Try changing the railing wall type around the Carport (Floor 1) to Siding-4 (this will address the attic wall).

"instead of" is where this is all going...and quickly.

Yes, the ceiling planes, right? What I was suggesting didn't have anything to do with auto framing, only the problem Gene indicated which was the wall top. I locked all the framing before connecting the roof valleys. In any event, it was the roof that forced the wall down as roof trusses will not cause an effect on the wall structure geometry. It's fairly common to have to edit trusses and the truss bottom chord could be edited to cleanly bear on the top plate.

I'm assuming he is referring to the wall shown in his image. When I join the roofs at the valleys, this wall top is correct.

This is simply because you're relying on the roof plane to also provide the sloped ceiling plane. For more and improved control you will need to use ceiling planes independent of the roof planes. This will allow you to properly model ceiling planes and allow you to join roof planes at their valleys.

Impressive stuff! Questions: Does it matter which AI tool is used (is one better than another)? Can the AI training be shared? For example could you share (sell) your trained agent? Would a pre-trained agent be able to work across different plan templates? For example, trained on your template but operate reasonably well on my template.
