  1. That's because you have a room on the 2nd floor over those rooms. Get rid of a wall so there is not a room over the kitchen or living room.
  2. Those rooms have the floor finish layer defined as a 0" thickness. Make it 7/8" like the other rooms...or the default thickness, or whatever you'd like.
  3. First to accept the credit and subsequent gratitude goes to me though!
  4. For a situation like that, I use a cabinet that is 4.5" deep (to keep my toekick). Keep in mind that an actual cabinet will probably not be mitered to a sharp 45. Rather, the face will be slightly away from the wall and a filler strip would be used...either ripped to 45 into the wall or placed perpendicular to the wall and mitered to the cabinet face. Then, I'd use a polyline to clean up the display in plan view, and a custom countertop.
  5. @ChiefuserMathews It does look like a hand rail bracket mounted near the top of the concrete wall might be a bit far from the upper end of the hand rail. The last thing you'd want is an installer fretting about that, then mounting it too close to the top and blowing the concrete out. That was the reason that, in an earlier post, I mentioned aligning the inside of the concrete wall with the exterior of the deck framing (although I wasn't overly specific)
  6. Problem #1: the roofs aren't connected at the top. Problem #2: this wall isn't long enough. Problem #3: this wall doesn't align with the floor below Problem #4: the hole in the lower roof plane isn't the right size. Drag it up to the exterior of the wall. Problem #5: some walls aren't using the default top and bottom height. Recheck those. Clean up the other side to match. Notice the side wall is broken into 2 segments:
  7. Hey Darren, glad you got it figured out. A few quick additional items will help with realism, although you may be ahead of me and have already done it. In elevation view draw a polyline 3/8" larger than your arched lintel course. You can replicate this for: material region to remove the brick polyline solid to be the mortar for the arched lintel.
  8. Hey Wilson, to initiate a reply from another user of the forum, you need to either quote them or tag them. That will send out a notification. @ChiefuserMathews
  9. Did you build the terrain on the main floor? That's where it belongs. I bet you built it on floor 0 so you'll need to follow Dermot's advice below.
  10. You've got to click the handrail molding.
  11. Your point is in the wrong spot. It needs to be the center of your arch so the solider course is concentric.
  12. What I mean is that by using a schedule with the custom field for seating, the data will at least be correct and live. The resulting schedule can be copied into a spreadsheet for totals and any other editing.
  13. From Help: Display Options - • Uncheck Display Column Headings to hide the selected schedule’s Heading row. When this is checked, each column has a heading at the top. • Uncheck Display Totals Row to suppress the bottom row stating the total area for all objects in the selected schedule. Only available in schedules set to include Door, Window, or Room categories, and only when one or more “Area” columns are included.
  14. You either buy a macro or use the schedule to get your totals and add that info manually. Obviously adding the seating field to the tables will at least take care of getting the right totals as you make changes.
  15. Seeing as you are using symbols, all you need to do is create a custom field in the OIP. Then, you'll be able to add that field to the schedule. EDIT: I believe you'll need a macro to get the totals automatically.
  16. I'm taking this before @DzinEye gets to it. You're welcome!
  17. For the balconies on the first floor, change the floor structure to a single layer that's 12.625" thick...same material as above. 18th st floorplan2.plan
  18. Open the wall definition of the railing and change the material to whatever you want it to be...just not framing.
