Elevations - First and Second Floor Material Overlap
robdyck replied to DRyeHD's topic in General Q & A
This would be best. I can take a look as well... -
I also use a polyline and macro system set up specifically for this purpose and for each (and any) elevation view. The polylines must be manually adjusted however the reporting output is automatic.
-
It works this way so that if you choose to re-organize the drawings on the layout page (which would then require re-numbering those views in layout) then all the callouts will auto-update and remain correct.
-
You'll also then be able to double click the callout which will open up the linked view.
-
Hey Ed, I think you're using those callouts backwards. The plan view callout should have the link on the upper line. It will then automatically display whatever number you assign to the layout view callout label. In your case, assign the #1 to the layout view callout label (the strap detail). This (%referenced_view_callout_label%) will go in any callout (in any view) that you want to link to that detail. This also means that your strap detail should be a view that is sent to layout...not just a CAD block.

Not really...that doesn't show up in many places (if any) on a plan set. Perhaps in a schedule, although calling out rough openings in a schedule would be somewhat dependent on regional practices. I would recommend that you leave the rough opening set as accurately as possible and alter the dimension settings to pick up the center of openings. It would affect section views if cut through an opening!

Make sure the 'filler' unit is about 1/8" narrower or about 1/16" shallower. Go to General cabinet defaults / turn off automatic fillers. This may create other hassles. There may be other ways...that's what I would do.

Hey Jim, I'd suggest using a base cabinet. I'd also suggest making a copy of a register symbol and then setting it to insert into a countertop. For accuracy and width, you may want to place several registers and convert them all into a single fixture that can be placed into a countertop / cabinet. Alternatively, you can just place one register into a cabinet top and adjust the cabinet width to match the register width. Then copy it 6 times to create the appearance of 12 vents. Use a matching cabinet with the register removed to serve as the fillers at the ends and intermediate portions.

You'll get the best help if you post the plan file.
-
I've had this happen before. These are tricky to correct and I don't remember exactly how I fixed it. You will need to post the plan or share a file link with someone through a DM if you aren't comfortable posting it here. I've can help and I'll sign an NDA if that's important to you.

Hi Damien, for help with an issue like this, it is best if you post the plan file.
-
One of the simplest ways would be to open an older version of the plan using File>Manage Auto Archives. Then you could copy and paste the roof framing from one plan into the other.

Glass House View Displays Custom Backsplash from Opposite Room
robdyck replied to Drew-PRH's topic in General Q & A
You can adjust the orientation of the texture and it's pattern. If the pattern is 3" high and if your countertop is at 36" then you should not need any vertical offset for the pattern. If you experiment with how the pattern and texture offsets work, then you should quickly be able to get the alignment you want. Ideally, you would ensure the texture and pattern are in alignment before adjusting the offsets. -
Glass House View Displays Custom Backsplash from Opposite Room
robdyck replied to Drew-PRH's topic in General Q & A
Back clip the camera. It looks like it is a section / elevation camera. -
By examining a section view, and assuming you're framing is dialed in how you'd like it, then you need to make some adjustment to the auto roofs for correct modelling. I'm going to assume you will be using a metal fascia cladding over the lumber sub-fascia. I'll list a few adjustments you can make in the Build Roof dialog (in no particular order): roof framing: trusses heel height: 7 15/16" roof structure thickness: 0" delete the ceiling surface uncheck soffits fascia thickness: 1/16" x 6 1/4" high eave and gable overhang: 2 5/16" (this is measured from the exterior of the wall main layer), 0.75" plus 1.5" sub-fascia plus 1/16" metal fascia Try these with auto-rebuild roofs turned on and you should get this result with the exact correct elevation
-
If I understand you correctly, you'd like the wall cladding to extend up to the roof sheathing and only a metal flashing would serve as the 'fascia', is that correct?
-
Use this: %room.volume.round% You will need to add the units at the end of the text or in the column title of your schedule.

I've used a customized note type and a customized note schedule. I kept the actual note on a layer that did not display in my con docs.
