CRHDesign Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Is there a room dialog to prevent this from happening? Ideally I want to make the cantilever a "cantilever" room and have it not generate walls under the cantilever with auto rebuild foundation walls on. Unless there is an easier way? Copying the balcony room settings ends up generating walls like the attached picture, still generating walls under cantilever. Feel like I'm missing something very simple.

DavidJames Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 What about using the "Box Window" tool and raising the floor by 1/16" of an inch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a quick fix, but the problem with the Box Window is that it still incorporates living area and you can't split the room. Too little control overall. Also makes it more difficult to put a lower roof on the cantilever. Thanks for the suggestion though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not perfect but may get you by depending on Views....Below I added a 2nd level 1 1/2" high and pulled the walls down as needed. M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg_NY61 Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 I do the floor and do the foundation, uncheck <automatically rebuilt foundation> then cut the part of the wall that needs to be cantilevered and pull the wall pass foundation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that is how I'm currently doing it, and it seems to be the most efficient way. I just assumed there must be a way to mark it as a cantilever and not have the auto-foundation fill it in but I couldn't find anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg_NY61 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Next year when a $600 version update comes out maybe they will add cantilever marking :-) can't have everything in one version release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
